PreJambo party @ AAW!

Cool band great music, good friends!

Tonight

As far as I know, this is the evening activity tonight!

Mmmm breakfast!

Just had breakfast, quite nice, a bacon roll, a sausage roll and coffee. Just got back to the tents and thought I'd take a pic of the view to share.

Arrival

Here we are at Gilwell. It looks like they've setup a big top to go with the circus theme!

Last night, I met steve and baz from British Scouts Western Europe who are the other two leaders in the birmingham/bswe unit. Also met up with graham and keith from the birmingham side. A good night had by all, except for the excessively noisy network behind us. Laughing and joking is one thing, shouting(!) at 4am was a little bit ott!

Heyho, not a perfect start, but good thus far.

Friday 20 May 2011

C'mon, The weekend has landed . . .

Well, its finally here, the AAW (All Adult Weekend).

Now some people have suggested strange this happening at the AAW, however, it's perfectly genunine. Basically, this weekend, all the adults going to the jamboree are going to Gilwell this weekend. IST (international service team), unit leaders and contingent staff, but no young people! ;)

Sounds like its gonna be a great weekend. I'll be travelling down later today, so hopefully, will be there before it gets dark!

Anyway, this is probably the easiest thing to use as a start to the countdown to Jamboree 2011.

Will try an post over the weekend with updates on what we're upto.
