When I was 11 I joined the Scouts. There were only about eight of us in our
troop and we were not very organised. Quite often Skip; the Scout Leader, didn’t
turn up. But we weren’t bothered. We just went off down the woods and had a
good time doing the sort of things that Gribble; the Alien Scout teaches
Dimbert how to do in
Bing Bang Boogie, It’s a Boy Scout.’
Such as........
 
At the week-ends we often went off
hiking and camping. Just like the
3rd Balsawood Road Scouts do in...
Ging Gang Goolie, it’s an Alien.’
Except we usually went off on our own.
Here we are. Nineteen miles from home.

Now I’m a writers & illustrator I have to spending a lot of time sitting at a desk or
drawing board but I like to get outside as much and as often as I can.
(Not long ago my wife & I walked ‘The Two Moors Way’. Over 100 miles in a week)
 
I want our grandchildren to know
about the fun that’s to be had in
‘the great outdoors’ too.
At week-ends we go on expeditions.
Here we are preparing
to set off up the woods.
