St George's day parade

Well it's funny that on St George's day the people of England are usually not that patriotic.

This year driving through villages where flags were flying outside shops and pubs I had to remind myself why they were actually there. For the first time that I remember there actually seems to be a patriotic nation this year.

Every year though scouts in town do the parade. Today was no different - very wet though. Sadly one of the leaders chief has died last week, so this year is was even more sentimental as there were more than a few tears shed for a man who has has such an impact on thousands of children, mine included.

Here they are. J with his cubs and E with her cub group as she is now a young leader.
