Halloween Edition 2024

 

This weekend I was off to a Halloween special which back in the 70's and early 80's wasn't really a thing because we marked All Souls Day which was more british and rather less merchandisingly friendly - we made our own toffee apples and that.


This is a Blanker Badge you too can sow onto your Scouts Blanket showing the current Scouts Family.

Halloween pause

 

There will be a bit of a break in transmission as it were as I'm going to be away a few days across the Fireworks and Halloween season, being outdoors having fun with friends.

Moving along

 


The path may be uneven, even appearing deserted at times but seldom less than colourful especially at this time of year to which at this time of things round halloween and bonfire night are added.

It's magical.

Taking a spot of fresh air

 

Yesterday was quite sunny as I came back from the GP practise for my covid booster seeing squirrels at play, fields plowed and sunlight crisp autumal brown leaves on a brisk walk.

Although it was a struggle with leaf covered squelshy pathways mainly on on side or the other it was enjoyable to be out.
