Cardboard Ovens and Pizza

Using a box covered in silver foil we made an oven and cooked a pizza.

Bonfire Night

We joined with Beavers and Cubs for this one.

Apple bobbing (or dooking as it is called in Scotland apparently!), sweets hidden in piles of flour and doughnuts suspended on strings gave us a messy but fun start to the evening.
Then there was a bonfire and singing and then a couple more games towards the end of the evening, oh and hot dogs of course.  Much fun on a cold but dry night.

Thanks to the residents who live around the scout hut for the firework displays that popped up from time to time as we sang.  Saved us a pile of money and risk assessments :~)

Also thanks to the various leaders and parents who helped in the kitchen, and to Tom's Butchery in Meriden for the lovely pork sausages which tasted great.
