Cooking Competition #2

Last night we ran the second in our four part cooking competition. The 'lunch' competition was to be spaghetti bolognaise. I got down early to get all the gear out and ready for them and to also get out one of the repaired kayaks. Whilst the scouts were busy with the lunch the other ASL in the group, our helper and myself ran down the road with the kayak to the local reservoir and put the it in - to see if it leaked!

It was successful - no leak from the newly drilled holes and the kids all fit comfortably in the kayak.

I've now ordered my own kayak as I don't fit particularly comfortably in any of the group kayaks (£425!) and it has the advantage of having a hatch I can store my gear in when I take them out for a day trip.

The kids have been cooking solely on gas at the moment. This weekend the PLAPLs are at camp and will be only cooking on a fire. That reminds me, must get out fire grids!
