Greatness Big Lunch [updated]
The group supported this year’s Greatness Big Lunch run by The Greatness Residents Association. We ran three stalls -a 3m scramble net, a slippery pole and a wellie-wanging competition.
As you can see from the photo, even the mayor tried his hand at the wellie throw – although 10.4m wasn’t enough to get him into the top 3.

MasterChef: Outdoors
4th Sevenoaks Scouts held a MasterChef: Outdoors evening last night – with each patrol competing for the Top Cook toque (chef’s hat). To avoid everyone cooking pasta – each patrol was given an unusual country and given a challenge to produce a two-course meal for two from that country. All within a budget of £6.
Wolves – Morroco
Menu: Meatballs with a spiced tomato sauce, served with almonds and corriander, followed by fresh orange slices dusted with blossom snow.
Cobras – Thailand
Menu: A starter of fresh melon, followed by thai green curry served with noodles.
Pumas – Skandinavia
Menu: Pork with white sauce served with swede and carrot mash, followed by pancakes with lemon, sugar and blackcurrant jam.
Eagle Hawks- Russia
Menu: Russian burger served with home-made bread sticks, tomato sauce and sour cream followed by a crisp pancake.
SPLs – Japan
Menu: Vegetable stir-fry served with fresh noodles and a teryaki and ginger sauce followed by Ringo Ame (toffee apples)
Winners
The competition was narrowly won by Wolves, with their Moroccan menu. Well done!
