Ranger Promise


Heyaaaa!!!!


Well a lot's happened recently!!! I've turned 18!!! That was really very exciting indeed!!! But I was hoping to have the professional photographs before I did a blog post on it! Unfortunately the photographer lady hasn't finished with them yet so you'll all just have to wait for that!!! Again I am sending of the utmost apologies to you all!!!!!!!


But on with the other stuff anyway I suppose!!!! So during the holidays I finally got around to making my ranger promise! For people who do not know what rangers are we are like older Guides! Guides technically finishes at 14, and then from 14 to 26 you are classes as a ranger!!!! So I joined rangers at 14! But have no finally got around to making my promise!!! Which I decided to make at Skipton Castle!!! I even wore a 1950s guiding uniform to make it!!!



Here are the pics!!!!




Not the most flattering of pics I must conclude!!!!! But still! Brings back good memories!!!! We walked all the way round Skipton castle and it was all pretty-ful and stuff! I really should have taken some pictures of it but me being me I was just a teensy weensy bit ditzy and forgot! Instead I only got the ones Mary took of me making my promise which you have seen above!!!



For those of you who don't know what the ranger promise is it's basically the guiding one with an added clause at the end!



For those of you who don't even know what the Guide one is it goes:



"I promise that I will love my God,


Serve my Queen and my country,


Help other people,
And keep the Guide law"





That added clause for rangers is "And what is your new duty as a ranger" to which you're supposed to reply "to aid the community"



So yes!!! I am now a fully fledged member of rangers with an official ranger badge!!!!






Am very very pleased with the new badge!!!! As we so often say in rangers "badges are gurdddddddd!" I think we might just have a slight badge addiction!!!! But I'm sure it's a purely healthy one!!! Am also very excited cause now once I finish my Look Wider Award I can do my Queen's Guide which is pretty darn awesome!



Anyways! That was just a very quick littlie post just to fill you in before these photos are ready!!! I might do a bonfire night one if the pics haven't arrived before Friday!!!



Thankyou for readinggggg!!!
