Budden’s Bugle Issue 6
Saturday 16th Aug 2014
Your final daily dose of H0014 news and fun
Wow... what a week!
Good bye Au Revoir Arrivederci Poka Auf Wiedersehen Adiós Tot ziens Namaste Ma’ assalama Have a safe journey home. Please be off site by 14:00 Bubble bath by 17:00
With a tear in the eye, a lump in the throat and a bag full of smelly washing, it is with a heavy heart that we pack up and prepare to leave the beguiling bubble of Buddens and bimble back to our other lives. We have shared some amazing experiences together and formed new skills, memories and friendships which will last much longer than the funny smell in the bottom of our sleeping bags. Scouting demands a lot of us all but gives back in spades and it is through shared experiences like those we have enjoyed this week that makes all the time and trouble worthwhile. Here’s to doing it all again sometime soon!
