My daughter has just returned from Switzerland with

her Explorer Scout troop.
Round camp fire on the first night amongst around 100 Scouts from all over the UK she noticed 6 Scouts with an Ipswich flag.
Tradition is that each troop does a skit at some point during one of the weeks camp fires. My daughter and her troop performed a medley of Norwich songs... including "always s**t on the old blue and white" "we beat the scum 9-2" and OTBC. The chorus of "yellows" was so popular that it was repeated every night and joined in by all bar four Scouts. :) Proud dad.

She did say that they made friends with them by the end of the week and even they were struggling to name anyhing good about the town of Ipswich.
