The longest name tag

A Scout Group name tag made for Hatty? MaC saw a post on 1st Facebook Scout Group advertising an unusual group name tag for sale as part of their Jamboree fundraising and immediately thought it should go on Hatty or Hatty2. (If you've never met Hatty you can find her blog at https://hattyandmac.blogspot.com/ ), So he sent off for one...... When the name tag arrived. mini-MaC showed it to Sid and a couple of friends. "Stretch it out", he said, "and as you go, try to work out what the name is and tell me." Sid and Joe tried to pull it with Jade's help.

Carisbrooke Castle

Sid and Jade went to Carisbrooke Castle Carisbrooke Castle is amazing, there's so much to see. It's been an artillery fortress, king's prison and a royal summer residence for over 1,000 years. They started in the Princess Beatrice Garden In the middle of the garden is a Statue of 1st World War General Jack Seely who used to live on the Island. He's pretty famous, but his horse, Warrior, who is better known as War Horse. Sid and Jade had to pose for a photo standing on Warrior. Carisbrooke Castle is famous for other 4-legged animals. Donkeys are used to turn the treadmill in the well house..... ..... which used to bring water into the castle. Nowadays the donkeys only walk in the treadmill for a couple of minutes, they don't bring big heavy buckets of water 49meters from the stream below. Next they went into the museum which had this amazing 4-poster bed. "Coooeeee, we're down here," shouted Sid...... ..."It's a great place to climb!".
