JOTI 2008

It is hard to believe that the Jamboree on the Internet (JOTI) has come around yet again. We have again been back to Cotswold School this weekend and have been using IRC to contact scouts and guides around the world. We have had over 80 people attend the event.

A great time has been had by all and a big thank-you goes to the Bishopdale and Harewood Scouts team who have organised the event on behalf of the Torlesse scouts zone. I personally haven't laughed so much in a long time!

I have been running a seperate blog for the event which can be found here:

I have a nasty feeling my colleagues are going to 'get me back' for some of my posts at the annual zone scout camp in January! I'll keep you posted on what happens.

Christchurch Trams

Another excellent way to see the city is to take a ride on the tram. They run on a circular route taking in many of the cities landmarks. The drivers give a running commentary and are a mind of information on the history of Christchurch. There are many varied and vintage trams in the cities collection and there is even a restaurant car which serves dinner in the evening as it travels around the city.
