I've got friends in Girl Guiding

A couple of months ago I was surprised to receive a phone call from a gentleman whose daughter is a Brownie in Romsey. His daughter was taking part in Hampshire's Romsey Division Girl Guiding Thinking Day Challenge for this year which was to send 500 badges on a journey across the UK. The Brownie's father's relatives had originally come from near Halifax and he had used the internet to look up Brownies in Yorkshire and came across St Edmund's website!

I was sent a lovely badge depicting Romsey Abbey with the words I've got friends in Girl Guiding Romsey. We put the names of all those who regularly come to church parade into a hat and Lucy Millichamp was the lucky Brownie to receive the badge and write a few words on a postcard to the Brownie living in Romsey.
