Bill Rules (2009)
“Some of those present had never ever been camping. And out of the kids who had slept under canvas, not one had been allowed to camp alone with just a big brother a whole two kilometres away.
‘We want to go camping more,’ said Bill.
‘So we’re going to join the Scouts,’ added Mat.
‘But you can’t,’ said Shane Storey, one of Bill’s cricket mates.
‘Of course we can,’ said Mat, annoyed.
‘I mean,’ explained Shane, ‘there’s no scout group around here anymore.’ ‘How do you know?’ ask...ed Bill.
‘My big brother’s a scout. The local scout group has moved across to join with the Mt. Ewart scouts.’ Both Bill and Mat knew Mt. Ewart was more than an hour’s drive away. Too far to expect their parents to drive to on a regular basis. Mat saw the disappointment in Bill’s face. Bill saw Mat’s jaw tighten. It was just a muscle twitch.MoreLess
