Jumping off the top...

...of the year!
It is the end - of term and so there is no official meeting on Thursday 21 December, but there are a few things we didn't get round to finishing, or even properly starting!

I will be at a loose end on Thursday - what to do with that gaping hole in my schedule?! A desolate wasteland of an evening! It would be driving me up the walls...

So... I thought some of you might like to sort out your DofE routes and dates, and also we decided to enter the rocketry competition again, but better prepared (which means we actually have to build it a bit earlier and think about how to be better).

I propose to be 'at home' on Thurs to help with rocketry things say 5:00-6:30, and then DofE things say 6:30-8:00 if any of you are able to get across and move things along. If you come for DofE prep, come with a list of w/es in March that you are able to do your practice expedition.

Also - now is the time to sign up for Scotland if you want to do the Winter Mountain Week in Glen Coe (so long as you have been coming to the regular walks and are known to the group).

Meanwhile, have a good break if I don't see you on Thursday, and we will meet back on Thursday 11 January 2018.
