Shaggy

NO! Shagai - the ancient Mongolian art of shooting sheep's ankles... We have promised to lead an activity at the Award Night next Wednesday, so you need to learn how to teach some Mongolian games. Come dressed for Mongolian wrestling and anklebone shooting (can't do archery and horse racing in Shire Hall!) I've got a flock's worth of shagai (really difficult to buy shagai on the internet outside Mongolia and it was a three week delivery wait and very expensive to buy from Ulaan Baatan's only online shop! The best options I could find were sheep ankle rustling (messy and the poor sheep would have to wriggle around like woolly slugs afterwards) or a Parisian ex-pat artisans collective!)

The recommended outfit is speedos, pretty calf boots and a blouson bare chested jacket...


oh - and a silly hat!     ...got that? Lets see how we get on with the look!

Drum Drum Drum Drum Drumming.........

Drum Corps - don't forget, no Drum Corps this Thursday (the 30th), but you get to perform on Wednesday the 5th of February at the Shirehall in Shrewsbury then hold a drumming workshop.

Please meet in the foyer at 6.10, in full uniform (plus school trousers and polished school shoes), and there will be nibbles and drinks available.  We are saying thank you for a very large grant so lets have a good turnout (and judging by last year there will be loads of fun stuff to do and see).

Lets rock their socks off.

You NEED to hand them to your driver before he sets off!

No Drums

Sorry, both Roger and Phil have to be somewhere other than Drum Corps on Thursday so our next meeting will be on Thursday 6th February.

Fire Fire Fire (and sausages!!!!)

Last week we did some soft and cuddly crafty type things.  This week we will set stuff on fire then eat sausages.  Ideal for a hungry pyromaniac then!  Ever lit a fire using a firebow?  Give it a try.  See you Thursday at 8.00

I am appealing!!

Oh yes I am!!
I am appealing for plastic storage boxes, ideally with lids, to keep kit in for our stores.  Big or not so big - we can use them all.
