How bad am I? It has been so long! But what a mad couple of weeks!
Girls' Brigade camp was absolutely brilliant! The girls were really good and there were no emergencies! On the Wednesday we managed to trick the girls into believing it was 'National Appreciation of Nuns and Monks Day'! Inviting us to eat our meals in silence! The girls weren't too impressed, however us leaders thought it was a fantastic idea! From the moment we rung the bell for the start of breakfast until Captain Sally said it was time for squad duties there was to be silence! The girls were so good... using sign language to say please and thank you! I managed to get the giggles at breakfast and nearly choked on my toast! We repeated the silence at dinner time. The girls were a little more unsettled and were holding back the giggles! We ended the silence just before dessert announcing to the girls ' You have done so well girls, especially as it was all a wind-up'! You should have seen their faces! And the names we were called after!
On the Friday we played hunt the officer! Julie and Cindy dressed up and went to hide in the local town... we had to hunt for them in groups! In and out of cafes, shops, etc. until we finally noticed a strange person sweeping the pier! Julie was dressed in a green boiler suit carrying a black sack of rubbish and a broom! Cindy was disguised as a jogger on the beach! The girls loved it and I'm sure they will talk about it for years to come!
