Delighted to have been invited to @surreyscouts Young Leader Conference to see their workshops and talk about getting your Scout story out into the wider world.
Another one ticked off. @EnglishHeritage Royal Garrison Church, Portsmouth with added choir for #HeritageOpenDays . Atmospheric and with a rich history.
An open letter to @YodelOnline ; please for goodness sake improve your standards. By blowing off my sister you forced her to take a day off work to do the job of your drivers and made me loose time this evening as she has needed to vent at me.
So when I log in and x.com asks me 'What is happening?!', how am I supposed to know, you're the ones tweaking and changing things.
Out cycling with Cubs in the beautiful @EngNewForest @NewForestNPA on the longest day of the year. Great exercise, great skills and great for the soul. #SkillsForLife #VolunteerLife #volunteering
@scouts @HampshireScouts @NewForestScouts @5thTestwood
Apparently there is a new variant of the dog poo fairy 💩 🧚♂️ that people are trying to tempt in the New Forest #ohdear
Delighted I could chat yesterday to #wsjUnit63 Solentsaurus @UKContingent about telling their story, using social media on Jamboree and how to talk to the media. Not bad for 60 minutes!
Picture taken by a young person, before they learnt to cut out background clutter in the pic!
Feeling for Mae Muller, her song slapped and you could hear all the crowd singing along, so much so it seemed like it was all we could hear at home. Whether it was sound issues or vocal strain it deserved more than that and doesn't deserve the hate some are giving it.
I love that every year a new generation discover the frankly crackers traditions and methods of #Eurovision, a beautiful synthesis so far of Liverpool's musical heritage and Ukraine's spirit. Strap in, more coming!

According to Walnut/ICM polling as of 19:30 on Monday 8 May:
5.86 million of the Great British population said they had taken part
7. 81 million people say they are more likely to volunteer as a result of the #thebighelpout
I'd love to be able to tell more people about the volunteering opportunities @5thTestwood for those searching during the Big Help Out.
However I find myself in a paradox of ticking all the boxes password wise and not being able to password. Any ideas @DoitUK?
I'm proud to be a Scout volunteer so was lovely to chat to @BBCRadioSolent about the #BigHelpOut coming up in May and why we need more volunteers and what they get out of it.
First airing this morning and more to follow. #SkillsForLife
Don't know if @jayforeman accepts ideas and questions for Unfinished London but... does London (as in the wider city) have a flag?
Feels like it should like the big cities in the US or Europe but don't recall one.

Ah yes, the joys of waiting for a parcel to be delivered (this time @parcelforce) and the driver not even bother to call, just record as delivery failed and then pootle off. Ah well, looks like I'm doing this all again tomorrow.
Is back doing scout things.
Joining young people from @HampshireScouts at @runwaysendOC to have fun, try new adventures and learn how to shout about their scout stories.
