29th April

What a month! It's the wettest drought I've ever known...


We'd planned all sorts of outside activities after a winter of being cooped up in the hut, but that wasn't going to happen with this weather.
We cobbled together a meeting which in the end was great- we learnt how to do a fire drill, did a quiz for our World Guiding Badge and played a mad 'Commonwealth' game which had them all squealing with excitement.
We also got letters from our Girl Scout Troop in LA which was brilliant.


We kind of knew that The planned Car Boot sale wouldn't go ahead. The Rec is so sodden and on the day, the rain just didn't stop falling so the council were forced to cancel it.
We'll do another one at the Cricket Ground or Rogate soon. We have items in the footballer's changing rooms which we'll have to move.
Ah well.
The vagaries of the English weather.
If I tell you that I had planned a BBQ with the Liss Guides for Thursday's meeting, you'll think I'm mad. But I have! Help!
