A big 'congratulations!' goes out to the two teams ('Rother' and 'Hippos(!)') who took part in the County Rampage competition held at Drum Hill Scout Camp this weekend. Both teams did excellently, with one winning the first place trophy.
The rest of the weekend was taken up by an action packed programme of activities, including shooting, archery, abseiling, climbing, bouldering and a widegame. The aim of the weekend was to demonstrate the possibilities of 'lightweight camping', using only small ultralight tents and Trangia Stoves. This brought up some interesting menu choices on the Saturday evening - tomato soup with chicken noodles anyone?
Photos from the weekend are, as ever, available at Padge's flickr site (just click the pic above to get straight there). If you see any of yourself that you would like a 12 x 8 (approx A4 sized) print of, then remember the file name and ask Padge next time you see him.
I'm off for a bath and a pizza now - cya in two weeks!
