To start the activity the group was given a guided tour of Gilwell park, but was not understood because of the dude's German accent! After the thrills of the tour we headed into the barn; which had been converted into a museum of scouting (the fun!), where we watched a video all about the history of scouting and Baden Powell.
Once we had survived the excitement of the first part, it was off to the assault course this iswhen the action started! To start we had a bit of fun showing an American guy the joys of being on the receiving end of a bit of British humour... After that it was fun all the way we ran down a long track taking people down in our paths, then into the slide, over the fence ALOT!and just before we were ready to die of oxygen starvation they chucked in a rope we had to climb its fair to say we were ready to drop by the end.
Then the well deserved lunch for a short while with the entertainment of some morris dancers (not us!) and of course Keir and his trigger happy stunts. We were then rushed off to the best part of the day making our own food which also included fire. Also tying to convince jamboree staff that jono needed to brand me with the jamboree logo (Andy's note to Chris's Mum - he didn't convince them - he's okay!).
After failing to brand chris we decided the next best option was to have a go on the soaking wet trampolines as this was the next best way to hurt ourselves. After messing around on these for a while and failing to cause any mischief or pain it was time to head back to get on the coach.
Once on the coach, the majority of us decided to have a sleep after our fun filled day at Gilwell, meanwhile the rest of us just bullied the ones that were sleeping (pen mistoches etc.) Once back at camp we had some tasty tuccer and chilled out for a bit on the site.
Please don't sue... :o)
