St Georges Day Parade Windsor

Hi all last weekend we attended the Mattins service in St Georges Chapel  Windsor and the Queens Scout  parade in the quadrangle of Windsor Castle afterwards. The salute was taken by HRH Prince of Wales and the new Chief Scout Bear Grylls. I was there because I had been awarded the Bar to the Silver Acorn in the St Georges day awards, a complete but very pleasant surprise. It was a great day as you will see from the pictures and we were able to meet up with old friends from Staffordshire again . All in All a very pleasant day.

Outside St George’s Chapell with John Barker resipient of the Silver Wolf the highest Award in Scouting and very well deserved. John has been and still  is a stalwart of Scouting in Staffordshire.
