Assembled musings...

Well, quickly... last weekend's day at Parkwood was good fun. 11 of my charges made it in the end, after 2 pulled out and 1 came unexpectedly. Anyway, they did various sports, and I was charged with 'discuss' as it was comically written on my scoresheet. But rather than engage them in deep coversation, I instead let them throw the discus which passed health and safety concerns by being made of the same material as a stress ball.

As I mentioned before, I won a chocolate coin gold medal for downing a tube of 'Mega Rainbow Dust' faster than ADC Cubs and one of my Cubs (who controversially nabbed the silver).

Anyway, last Thursday marked my final Cubs meeting for a few months. We have the Carol Service this coming week, where one of my top Cubs will be invested into Scouts and receive his 'Chief Scout Silver' award (highest award in Cubs). We will also be investing a leader, which is good.

Someone made the point yesterday that without me, our pack lacks male influence. A sad reality, but hopefully soon I will return and those taking it forward will do a great job. We had a planning meeting the other day and chose a local drinking hole as our location to do so. Very good.

So this blog may become more and more infrequent in the coming months, but keep looking out for more in the series of 'thoughts....' franchise.
