A day of pioneering and knife skills.

Assessor has been round and found everything to be generally ok.

Scouts are saying this is the best camp they’ve been on - one would be happier with toilets, one would be happier with there being more trees.

Hoping for a warmer night tonight and for it to stay dry until after we pack up.

Tents up, toilets dug, fire got hit enough to make hot chocolate and tea.

Sent the Scouts to bed at 23:00 and they seem to have gone to sleep in record time!

Full of trepidation this morning ahead of my greenfield permit assessment camp.
Had a number of dreams last night of things going a bit wrong.

Did food shopping last night, will be sorting kit this morning.

Honestly the main things that can go wrong today:
- forget some bit of kit (can likely work around)
- Scouts drag their heels setting up camp (in which case we prioritise what is needed tonight and finish off in the morning).

Just got to keep a clear head when my assessor asks questions and not go all foggy.
