When I was a wee Cub of 9 years old, I set my leader's hair on fire Grin

Nah, it's quietening down now. Someone had an issue about being asked to attend a Cub meeting to discuss her son's behaviour. That led into some very abusive comments about Scout leaders, but the Scout leaders gave as good as they got and some Scout parents too said how much their children had got from the organisation.

This thread was just meant to be an antidote to all that negativity.

I was a brownie/guide till I was 16, loved it!

one day when I haven't got tiny children I intend to get involved again - once a guide, always a guide Grin

Yes, I was including Rainbows, Brownies, Senior Section, Beavers, Cubs and Explorers but thought I ought to keep the title short and snappy. There was so much negativity on that other thread that I thought it might be nice to accentuate the positive here!
