D of E Meeting

I went to a D of E meeting with a new group last night. Almost learnt more about maps doing the basics with the Bronze group (not entirely sure why I wound up in the wrong place) than I ever did before going on my expedition. Actually, I think I pretty much did. I now have the grounding in map reading (the absolute absolute basics) that I never got. And had to attempt to pick up while out there in the field. So it mostly got left to other people and so we got lost. But never mind. This time it looks like we might actually be organised. Wow! That's gonna be a novel experience for me...
