Some Condemned Men Don't Fall For That One

This week, the Scouts were knotting. Knotting's a good, wholesome activity for a Scout troop. The older ones can teach the younger ones and everyone comes away having gained something from the experience. Trouble is, when you're dealing with the Scout troop who can endanger lives washing up, what they tend to come away with is rope burns, a tinge of blue in the extremities from the cutting-off of circulation, and at least one choking-based near death experience.

I reckon that as long as I still have the patience to step in and prevent them from killing themselves, I'm doing as well as can be expected.
