So I know I've been a bit rubbish so far in this whole blog thing so far. To be honest I've had more important things to do than update my blog. Recently we've been trying to sort out a weekend away and me and Paul, the youth leader have been put in charge of a group bonding game, except I've done all the work and I should imagine I will end up doing all the work. This isn't a rant about exploitation (but I could go on), but about how hard it is to actually think up a few non-cheesy exercises as part of the game. The internet is no help and I haven't got a clue.
The main idea is that an alien ship's crashed and the group has to split into groups and find parts of the ship, but the parts need you to do some sort of exercise to get them. I know the main premise is cheesy, but if we aim for that but keep the exercises non-cheesy, it should work.
I'll let you know how that goes.
Another thing is my good mate Joe Hopkins is on a gap year in Brazil at the mo. I know that wouldn't make me busy, but when he comes back, he'll be touring the country with his team going into schools and stuff and I'm coordinating their week's stay in Aylesbury, including accomidation, transport, visits etc. I haven't got a clue!
And finally and I suppose most importantly, I've now got a girlfriend and she takes up a fair amount of my time. I'm not complaining, but that's why I've not updated my blog for ages.
