Day 21.....

So, day 21 of my challenge, and so far, despite such joyful subjects as The fatal raven, Schoolmen, and the Blue Ensign, I have managed one poem a day so far... phew! And on the advice of nearly everyone (as mentioned last entry) I am now enrolled on a dating site.... was a bit scary going on first toime, but most people there seem fairly friendly, and no ones actually old me where to go yet.... but for saying I've been a member for just over a week, things seem to be going well.. and I can say it was definitely worth the joining fee so far.... but there we are.... so, whta has gone down this week...??? well, St Georges Day parade on sunday went well, one of my embarassing pics of a fellow leader being used to great effect in the service... sorry, Spoon.... I've made a rosary for a friend, and I'm hoping I can get it blessed by a priest.... and I've been told i'm wasted as a Scout Leader, and should have been a Brown Owl... but unfortunately I'd have struggled in that role.. choosing between skirt and culottes would be difficult... especially with my legs..... I've also ordered some length of service badges for my scout uniform.... its afunny thing, but we seem to a bit slow in some things... for instance, I received my certificate for 5 years service after nine years,.. but got my ten year on eleven months later... but I digress... before i sign off, though, big up (as those who are down wiv the kidz say) to James Muller, Beaver, Cub, Scout, Young Leader, Assistant Scout Leader and Friend... who skived off St Georges day fro no better reason than that he was present at Windsor Castle with the Chief Scout and Queen (or her representative) and the Duke of Kent to parade with all the years awardees of the highly coveted Queens scout Award... well done Jim... out of all the Scouts I've known, you deserved it most.... mark this well, future employers... you will be very lucky if you can get this man to work for you.... but there we are... until all can be as much a family as our Scouts, Wisebeard salutes you!!!!!!!!!!
