Yeah. My mum and dad were cub/beaver/scout/venture scout leaders over the ears 
in rodley. When my dad died a few months back there were 40 year old scouts 
there with their kids. I never realised what an effect he had on kids lives but 
it seemed like a pain at the time giving up nights and weekends.  I think the 
demise in popularity of scouts over the years has had a detrimental effect on 
society!

I used to do that too Dave when they boy Sean and his little brother were 
cubs. I eventually had to become Akela when the guy who was doing it 
suddenly packed in.
I gave it up when the youngest got too old, in favour of running the junior 
cricket team in Addingham.
Happy days and folks like you do a lot to help bring up the yoof of today to 
have a sense of right and wrong and cicvic duty etc. More strength to your 
elbow :-)
