Hi All,

We have had my parents staying with us for a few days,a nd they wandered off to one of their favourite places on Sunday afternoon - they went to Altonm Water, a reservoir just outside Ipswich, in Suffolk, and said they had never seen so many tents being erected, rows of toilets, and all sorts of other marquees. They said it was to do with a Scouting event of some description, so I wonder if this is it - or whether the event at Alton Water is a sort of 'over-spill' to the main event? We are about a two-hour drive from London, but thankfully, we are supposedly in one of the driest areas of GB - although we have had far more than our share of rainfall this summer, we have not been flooded, and the reservoir is picturesque - and large - in the extreme. So - I do hope all the scouting fraternity will enjoy themselves, and thank God tthat we are relatively unscathed with the awful flooding.

Think about Scouting authorities (in London area somewhere) who have a Centenary World Jamboree about to start (28th July) and they have 500,000 people coming!!
