Three Irish lads sharing the same bed on holiday.
But it was so crowded that
one decided to sleep on the floor. After a while, one
of his friends told him he
might as well get into the
bed again. "There’s lots of room now." he said.
In the words of the song
It can only get better..
Scone work party
Seven units braved the elements on the 7th-9th March 2008 to help get Scone site ready for opening . But the weather was so bad that only the inside work could be done.
So the ladies of the club, armed with mops, pails and scrubbers started to do the toilets and showers .Then along came the men armed with scrapers started to scrape the moss from the roof lights.(windows) By the end of the day they had them shining like new pins.
A get-together was held in the hall on Sat night and a wee drop of the falling down water was drunk. A new warden has taken over at Scone and made everyone welcome. He also learned a few new words over the weekend.
