Have now downgraded my router and everything is fine. Ish. Well, it’s working at the moment so let’s just smile and pretend everything is fine. Ah, the peace of denial!

So, anyway, I was down at the Scout Hut today doing our Re-Registration Day (basically getting the parents down to the hut to fill in forms confirming that they don’t want us to kick their little darlings out AND getting them to volunteer for things). My whole bit involved getting people to drink tea and coffee and confirm the times they will be showing up for the bag pack (that I am now organising as Mum has been banned from it by, well, everybody) next weekend.

I honestly thought it would be a disaster. That no one would show and we would all end up feeling complete idiots. The great parentage surprised me again! Although not all of them showed up (not by a great stretch of the imagination did I, or anyone else for that matter, expect that to happen) enough did so that we could call it a success. Now we just have to get people to stick to the things they signed up for.

The enthusiasm that was shown got me in the right mood to get the things done I have been avoiding for a while. So, yay! The only thing I have to concentrate on now is…. ARRRGGGGHHHHH! The website. I have to do one that works on anything but php… It’s been so long since I’ve bothered that I can’t remember a thing. It’s the login bit that’s killing me. We need a protected bit so that we can put letters to parents, event information, photos and the like in there. php - easy as, done, dusted (thanks Wordpress). Everything else is just too damn hard to figure out. But! I am going to Whip It (yes, that song has been running round my head all day - just passing on an earworm!) and success will continue to be the theme of this week.

When I was a wee girl in Scotland I used to be in the Brownies. I originally joined because I thought it was something to do with fairies but ended up really enjoying it, anyway. Good luck with everything!

The Scouts part I understood. The webby bit went right over my head! I *think* I should wish you good luck, but I’m not absolutely sure ;o)

Selma - I used to love the Brownies! I had loads of badges! Loads! It was quite tragic in a way how over-achieve-y I used to be!

Penelope - The way I’m feeling right now it’s going over my head, under my head and all the way around!
