Today I helped an elderly lady carry her shopping from the bus stop to her house. I was rubbish at remembering to do Good Turns as a Brownie/Guide, and also I think you are meant to keep quiet about them and act as if being nice were actually part of your make-up rather than forced upon you by feminine institutions, but I WAS A VERY NICE PERSON TODAY.

YOU ARE ALWAYS A VERY NICE PERSON. So there. :-) Also, that was a lovely thing to do.

I was a bit rubbish at the whole Cubs thing, and never got as far as Scouts. But I remember being on my way to a meeting (gathering of the pack, coven, whatever they were called), and someone stopped me and said, "Here, you're supposed to do good turns, aren't you? Do xyz for me!" Well, if you put it like that, NO.

I was relieved to discover that we were in fact headed in teh same direction, I am not sure that I could have been very pleased to walk a mile or so out of my way.

My dad left scouts because he didn't like the shorts. Then they introduced trousers.
