Good evening and welcome aboard the minibus as we return from coasteering, Babbacombe award winning fish and chips, and finally Torquay amusement arcades. Christmas tunes are on and the sugar excited scouts are exclaiming ‘Merry Woodmas’ to all around. They sound quite happy and full of cheer! Jumping around the coast went down very well […]

Woodmas is just minutes away! Our patrols spent the night playing a real-life version of the 1980’s classic computer game ‘Woodmas’ which involved them dressing up as Father Woodmas, his Reindeer, and two wood-elves! Our after party around the Woodmas tree ended with a bang!

Good morning from a changeable, bright and sunny Sidmouth where Sir Alan has given 2 patrols a list of things he needs bought, while the rest go Paddle Board crazy! The VIP scouts requested Oasis in the radio this morning but the theme from Disneys Frozen is also a big hit – along with Lego’s

We’ve spent the afternoon having a pleasant stroll along the country lanes around the campsite, to see the local attractions. JJ and Matty Thomas shared the honours in the crazy golf, whilst all the scouts were winners when we treated them to their daily ice cream (at the Donkey Sanctuary). More pictures later…

We’ve spent the morning getting a bit more sorted, and playing longball in the drizzle! Hopefully it will brighten up soon! Genuine scout quotes… ‘Gala night was sick. The best bit was the samosas.’ J Reeve ‘I’m looking forward to learning how to make fires because it will be good’ D Scarlett  

Camp has officially opened! We’ve had another fantastic Gala night, this time with a classical Indian menu. With the scouts dressed up, twinkly lights, gourmet food, and 7 variety acts, it was a night that will live long in the memory!

We’ve set up camp already and have even had time for a dip in the sea – I’m reliably informed that it’s not as cold as last year?!
