Cuboree

Amber returned, dirty and tired but speaking ten to the dozen. She had a fabulous time. They made scarves, woggles and a dilly bag for the mess kit. Did canoeing and archery. Even made a new friend from Tamar.

Jodie and I helped for an hour at the Bunnings BBQ. Afterwards, finally bought a can crusher. Now I can get into the mountain of cans.

No catalogues this weekend, felt funny. Guess they will arrive tomorrow. I have it down to just under 2 hours now for the Exeter run and 3 for the drive. Added more houses in all directions and it still took the same time.

Sewing tomorrow, going to have another go at a peg bag. Got a good one from the below blog.

Cuboree at Camp Boomerang, Port Sorrell

This weekend, Amber is at Cuboree which is being held at Camp Boomerang, Port Sorrell. After all the rain we have had over the past 12 weeks, thankfully, just a sprinkling today. Only 4 of the Cubs went. Such a fabulous introduction to Scouting. No-one from Exeter.

Tomorrow, Jodie and I will be doing the last BBQ at Bunnings. A fundraiser for the Jamboree.

Sadly, on Thursday morning, Akala died in her sleep. She is now mercifully, out of pain. The funeral is on Tuesday. Will be a very sad day.

This is supposed to be a small size! Oh well, the thought is there. Let's hope Michelle likes them. At least they should be warm.
