I gave up while in the Brownies, all those silly games running over
outstretched legs ... and I couldn't understand why you got badges for doing

I got as far as Rangers - it was dreadful in those days! - Make up,
flower arranging!! ... ISTR this was the 'design for living' component

I still have some and was pleased to see that 'thrift' was rpresented by a
skep (straw beehive).
