And then this is because i ran out of room on the previous post;

Wow, a nice selection of Japanese gifts! I didn't get any great trades to be honest, how did you do? But the trousers were pretty grim. Only had to do one presentation and that was just running a local cub pack meeting, which was quite exciting as I showed them all of the games like Ninja and Mookipelli (a Finnish game which was pretty awesome.)

I'm on a bended knee and am grovelling. Hopefully this reply is more satisfactorily on time.

I agree the slightly clouded showers weren't fantastic and neither was the bed sharing, but by the time I'd hit the pillow, I don't think I cared.
I agree with your view on Copenhagen; it was just a typical European metropolis. But it did feel nice as we walked through the city to get to the speedboats. Did you go on the speedboats? They were pretty fantastic. But we went to Stockholm and Helsinki when we went to Ho-Ho and I honestly thought Stockholm was the least nice of the cities. Helsinki, conversely, felt the nicest to be honest. I think in terms of the countries we visited, Finland was nicest. Where did you go on Ho-Ho; not sure I ever picked that up!

We were both in Wake-up! Woo! I thought it was nice, except I wasn't convinced I enjoyed the see through bathrooms or sleeping in the same bed as another guy. The area seemed rough, but the Rchitetchure was far more varying than the rest of Copenhagen. I felt uncertain of what I thought of Copenhagen altogether. The old town was quite pretty, but the whole place lacked feeling. It just seemed like 'another' European capital.

The presentations are yet to begin, I suppose I'm lucky. First one is set on 15th December. But I've written an article for the local paper/magazine. I did buy some of those trousers, but I wish I hadn't really, they were so garish and... Urgh. Luckily, a Japanese boy was keen enough to swap mine for a Komono, belt, bell tie, bandana and fan so I was quick to get rid of them.

You should be spry for replying late, you ,made me feel as if I wasn't wanted and I felt so horrendously hopeless. Beg for forgiveness, GROVEL!

I didn't know your name, only that it may include Miller. So I went with that and they said it was either you or Cameron. I loved the Oxfordshire's theme, Devon's was quite frankly rubbish. Lighthouses only really represent Plymouth.

I didn't mind the Danish sandwiches, I could tolerate them, but I thought it was sad that upon receiving our lunches, half of our unit put them straight in the bin. I thought that was quite wasteful. Copenhagen was ok, but we were staying in the WakeUp which seemed to be in the rough area of town.

The actual Jamboree was amazing. We had dinner with the Israelis which was fun, and Ive kept in contact with a few of them. They gave me lots of Israeli bunting and a Jewish Kippor (Kippah?).

I also managed to swap those horrible UKC print trousers for a Japanese (Komono?) which I'm wearing to presentations to the scout groups.

Hey there I hope I didn't freak you out too much, I justed wanted to put a face on the person I spoke to, did you enjoy the jamboree?
