Who else had to sing "Land of the Silver Birch/My Paddle's Keen and Bright" year after year?

Oh so many times. I spent waaay too many years involved in Guiding.

Side note: I always wanted to be a Guide, but I was too old when I joined Brownies, so I would have had to walk up instead of flying, and that was just not good enough. So I quit.

Ahh, pre-teen drama.

And did you have the drama over who was the sixer in your group in Brownies? Most of my group thought I'd gotten it only because my mom was the Brown Owl, but I think it was because I was always at the meetings (yes, because of my mom, but whatever) whereas the other people in my group were not always there. Drama, indeed.
