Jenny's Journal - February 2012
ExpiredHere we are in February and this is my first Blog of the year. Although I have been busy, it has mostly involved meetings of one type or another. However, I have managed to keep out of mischief rehearsing for the Shotley Panto, this time I'm dancing cheek to cheek with one of my ex cubs. I think my little fillers of Charades must have impressed as quite a few of my cubs and scouts caught the acting bug! The show, Sleeping Beauty, runs from the 15th to the 19th Feb.......weather permitting.
