I think I got an Agility badge at Brownies.

It was a while ago.

I was only ever a Seconder and never a Sixer.

The injustice burned.

But, maybe I could right that wrong and just say I was a Sixer? <ponders>

ICouldHaveCheckedFirst · 17/11/2025 13:50

I know Methodist McKeowns in NI.

Am having a quick google: I think the videos will all be on here:

I’ve now got The Prodigy song stuck in my head.

I have a trophy for coming 2nd in the 3 legged race in 1988.

I won't be there when you cross the road, so always use the Green Cross Code!

Blimey, am I the oldest person on here. Tufty Club badge. Long, long before Green Cross code ("look right, look left, look right again; if all clear, quick march" 🤓). I'm sitting comfortably. Age-appropriate slippers on.

Isn't that just an extension of 2 + 2 = 5? Now 2 = 6

Of course. Totally

Excuse me whilst I go go Google beetle anatomy

Dammit, I always misspell them, Malpighian.

Does the Respondent's barrister have a "second" (or is it a pupil)? Imagine turning up in court with your hastily purchased meal deal lunch to discover that Charlotte and Naomi have been busy bees all weekend.

AND you realise that Nick W is back for week 2.

Why should you know the details of your own beetly anatomy when so many women don’t know their own well enough to know they have a cervix <serious point there>

I came second in the under-9s girls' sack race for the Queen's Silver Jubilee in 1977. I received a gigantic lollipop. My younger brother won his race and got a Silver Jubilee mug. I was very jealous.

Ha ha, I was a Sixer so I can look down on you even though I was the only one in my Six.

From NW

Tribunal is sitting. The parties have nothing to add to the written submissions for the recusal application and response. Members of the press have been heard and the judge has allowed the submissions to be handed to the media. I'll post them up asap!

Judge retires to consider submissions. Judgment will be at 2.30pm

Have you seen Bombadier beetles - they actually do chemical explosions!

Madcats · 17/11/2025 13:55

Not only was I a sixer, I also played "Mary" in the church nativity play!

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 17/11/2025 13:55

Damn, I'll definitely back at work by then Sad

BetaTwoAgony · 17/11/2025 13:55

Why would members of the press need to be heard?

I came 3rd in the sack race and have a little trophy for that too. I didn’t want to brag tho. 😂

I would’ve rather had the lollipop.

Not sure about a junior barrister but I think there was an instructing solicitor with him.

Wasn't there a character called Charlie (a cat?) Who used to tell you not to play with matches?

DH quotes Charlie approximately once a week. We all live in fear of bizarre domestic accidents.

BetaTwoAgony · 17/11/2025 13:55

I'd guess to ask for copies of submission to be made available, and for the outcome to be delivered publicly?

Madcats · 17/11/2025 13:57

BetaTwoAgony · 17/11/2025 13:55

Why would members of the press need to be heard?

They probably want to make the recusal application public (or at least be able to see it).

thewaythatyoudoit · 17/11/2025 13:58

I wonder how SM feels about all this. Success on the recusal takes her back to square 1, but she must be in favour

I was a pixie Sixer but got no badges.

Pixie Sixer too 👋
Ive still got my uniform, beret, and purse belt ( they’re 50odd years old)

I did get a lot of badges 🤣
but got my 25 m swimmer badge with the cubs because girls in brownies didn’t get to enjoy sports or camping we were just stuck with sewing and cooking badges 🤯
