Day Five

View over a small part of the camp site tonight, Davenham's blue tents in the middle of the picture

Thanks for the cakes Mum having a good time.
Aaron

The boys were all again singing Mrs Campbell's cakes over and over!!! )

The camp fire wasn't that good, we heard the Kenyan's and the Siera Leonian's singing traditional songs which was cool. The Irish sang a song or two which were really good.
Seb

Camp fire ok definately could have been better. Met some Scottish and Americans. At the camp fire Alex D couldn't stop sliding down the hill.
Haven

The Americans camp was much better than ours, they had cooks and silence when they needed it, it was really organised and cooler
Ashley (Problem is Ashley they have leaders that only cook and wash up all week, and the kids listen to the leaders :) !!!!!!!!!!!)




It is nearly time for the beach party I can not wait. Having a great time at camp. Tomorrow we are having fish and chips yummmmmmmmmm
Edward



















I had a wash for the first time on camp
Aaron (not sure if all the girls in beach wear may have had something to do with most of the boys finding the shower for the first time tonight!!!)

Thanks Faye - wait till I get home

Alex C

Alex C quote of the day in the Daily Joust "I've just remembered why I don't like heights - they're too high!!"

We made contact with the Americans today, Phillip and I are going for tea at their camp. Dance to the moon.
Ashley

Alex C is very excited because he is doing the meal swap with the Scottish, he's having mixed bean stew and pots, unfortunately Ashley invited an American , neither the Scottish or the Americans are keen on one another.
LOL

Hay Hay whats up, it's me Alex L. Spent all day on activities in the energy and skills zones, so I saw Jelly Baby's respiratories and knocked Alex C off a balance beam gladiator style!!!:) also made a tent peg, tied 6 knots which I forgot and built a chair. Yesterday I did olympia and arena and wore a sumo suit. Got a good record on shot put. We had to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 the sequel, after I went and saw my friends in the Leicester camp, then on to the German camp where we were asked questions like 'do you have washing machines' and 'do you have tv's'. They are very good at speaking english.
Charlie was sick, well he thought he was they blame it on my cooking, I mean I ate my pancakes and 3/4 of the camp did but I didn't feel sick!!!!:)
Alex L

Hopefully if the internet will stay connected will put up the photos of days 1 - 4 on the activities page.

People from USA and Scotland are coming for tea tonight for a food swap should be interesting.

Just off to Scottish camp to eat their food

Alex C

Loving camp favourite bit is the inflatable duel

Edward.

By the way it was Spag Bol in our camp tonigh not a very english meal!!

Day Three

Haven goes a little strange every night I think he is having too much sugar

Alex D

Charlie had to go home, got ill I think it's was because of the pancakes Alex L cooked for us, they didn't look right!!

Jack

Done the Olympics today and got the stamp for it

James

Made more friends from other groups

Ashley

I'm cooking tonight having a full english tea (meat pots and veg) with Alex D.

Jack

I hate everyone for voting for me to do the washing up - they say I was away talking to girls, no one is helping me as they say I was back late for dinner and this is jankers!!

Alex L

Mrs Senior (Ashley's mum) sent a very delicious chocolate cake over for tea tonight and Haven said "my mum's cakes are better" I have informed Mrs Carty by text so watch this space

Phil(SSA)

Is there a parents competition on cakes, are Mrs Campbell's going to be voted for next! So far in the competition is Mrs Langton, Mrs Senior (cake so large only had her's tonight). Must say the boys are really enjoying them (and the leaders!!!!) In fact the boys were all singing "Ashley's Mum's cake" over and over.

Dave (GSL)

Jack enjoyed his cooking so much he scrapped the pan out and ate the left overs.

Phillip

Been in the talent show today

Alex C

Thanks Mum

Ashley

Mum tell Dad to make his lemon drizzle cake and bring with him

Alex L

The disco was not brillant last night so the boys were in bed a little earlier (before 1.30am)

Food seems to be a more important part of camp than the activities that they are all doing!

Day Two

We were raving at the Disco last night
James

I am tired, dance to the moon!
Aaron

Good morning everyone
Seb


We broke the world record today playing wobble boards, over 3000 of us

James

Chilli today was delicious
Alex D

Robbie Williams was terrible he gave me ear ache, I made pancakes they were better than any in the whole camp once I started (after 4 failed) I was not allowed to stop - MUM I KNOW YOU ARE MISSING MY PANCAKES!!!
Alex L

















Off to the neon disco now see you tomorrow!!!!!!!!!

Oh we have been to watch some jousting today bit boring and it was a set up!!!!
Phillip

Beavers really enjoyed themselves today and most thought that the jousting was the best bit followed by the sumo wrestling and the human football.
