The inevitable return of the great clueless one.

[Melonfish]

Hi,
I've been a member since 2009 but in the last few years life has just generally ambled along in some other directions, i took up a lot of cycling and work commitments, i couldn't get out as much etc etc.
i could make excuses but i'd rather just jump back in.

My names Pete and i'm a bushcraft addict.

some of the... i want to say older but i'm going to say more regular members so toddy, big red and tony etc don't lynch me, some will remember me but for those that have no clue i'm a father of 2 rapidly sprouting boys who in the last year took up scouting, and this year i finally committed and I'm soon to be invested as an assistant leader (crivvens!) Swmbo is also being invested and looking after our youngest and the beavers.

i've been itching to get out for ages and i really need to re-learn some skills, but i'm looking forward to learning and teaching what i know to the cubs and scouts i'll be out with.

I did return for a bit when i saw about drew, in reflection i think because i had never met him in person makes my world just a tiny bit smaller, just from speaking to him on this wonderful friendly forum i had immense respect for him and i know how much he'll be missed not just by me but by everyone, i hope his next life is as full of as many good friends as he found in this one.

Anyways, hello
Pete

Hi sam! good to see your about m8, and modded too (Does the mod side have cookies?)
I'll make the brews but i can't touch em m8, i am officially sans caffeine, sugar substitute, citrus, chocolate, red wine, raisins, nuts, sulphites and many other tasty foods, migraines suck.

Most definitely hooked! i'm the only male adult leader our group is oddly all female leaders until you hit scouts when it's the other way. we have a few young leaders working for their belts though so i'm not entirely outnumbered!


to everyone, it is great to be back, just busy getting stuck in and thanks for the welcomes

That can tend to be the way, we have no adult female leaders in my Scout section but in Cubs we only have one male and the rest female. My wife also followed me into Scouting and is a Beaver Leader, this way she gets to see me at weekends
