On Tuesday I had to leave Scouts early as Carol’s Mum is in hospital and Carol had gone to visit her and I had to pick up Carol at the end of visiting time. So instead of my uniform I put on my Group T-shirt, which we wear for camps and when some identity is needed but uniform isn’t necessary, and normal trousers.<\/p>\n
But last night I got to thinking, why didn’t I wear my uniform? I’m not embarrassed to wear it, all my friends and most of my work colleagues know what I do in my spare time. Perhaps I subconsciously didn’t want to be bothered with those people who mock and criticise Scouting and a T-shirt is less obvious, as long as you ignore the big badge on the front! <\/p>\n
Thinking about it, I must be a bit personally embarrassed for not being me.<\/p>\n
I suppose I shouldn’t really give a damn what others think if they are that stupid or narrow minded. <\/p>\n
Bit of food for thought really. What does everyone think?<\/p>\n
