Beavers and Wall


Too much has happened since our last blog that I'm not even going to try and catch up! Anyway, tonight was Daniels Promise night with Beavers. He loves going and was very excited. His friend Callum was doing his promise tonight aswell, all I can say is I hope their leaders know what they are letting themselves in for with them two there.

All lined up ready!
Making his promise
When he saw he was getting a scarf, woggle and badges!

All done and ready to come home.


The other achievement of last week was that we made a start on re-building the wall in the front garden. We had to take it down to make the drive wider as you couldn't open the car doors. Quite ironic really as the car has died and awaiting a trip to the garage. However all that time shifting stones in Bel Air has paid off as I think we've (really Chris) has done a great job.

This is about the best picture I could find of the wall before.

This is it after.

We need to do some more work on the half towards the house which I think we'll do tomorrow. I really underestimated at how long this takes but I do think it looks infinitely better than it did before, especially as neither of us has done this before. Well done Chris, really proud of you.
