For all ex scouts and girl guides. Today is Lord and Lady Baden-Powell's birthday, also known as Founders Day. Off to a big dinner tonight.
Cheers Allara

Unusual for them to have their birthday on the same day. What a co-incidence. Have fun.

As ex Scouters, we wish all members, past and present Happy Founders Day. Had lots of fun in Scouting for almost 20 yrs, learnt lots, some of it I use in our travels now.

I have been a leader in combined sections for 20 years now and still find new things to do and learn. One of the pleasures is when a 'kid' comes and thanks you for the things they did and learnt while scouting.....a big shock when they turn up over six foot and in their 20's...that's when you feel old.

Is a coincidence, they were different years though. Had a great meal, chicken breast in a curry sauce followed by a chocolatey thing and of course strong coffee.
Cheers
