november 11th 2015 - on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.....

.....We will remember them!

Although  the local parade was at the weekend today was remembrance day.  I was at the school for family learning and had set my alarm for just b4 11am, I wasn't sure if everyone in the group was going to join me in the silence but I was certainly doing it.  Well as it happened the group leader said that we would all do it and could I keep watch on the time for the end.  Which I did.

I don't know why but the 2minute silence ith our small group of 9 people seemed to take forever, much longer than when you are in a big group like on parades.  I have no idea why this is.

July 8th 2015 - St John Ambulance

Today is a mixed day at St John Ambulance.  The cadets are doing their sponsored silence as part of their fundraising badge, and also to raise funds to buy the glow in the dark items we need for christmas party.  Fingers crossed they all do it, especially my son who has raised £101!

 

The badgers are *hopefully* going to the park as part of their wild badge, this is weather dependent.   As at the moment it is looking very grey and dark and has rained on/off most of day.  I did ask them to bring wellies and coats just incase, and as long as not raining hard we will still go, if it is hard they will be watching a dvd.
