On a World Scout Jamboree in Essex, so unfortunatley won't be online then or be able to Wifi battle.
Should be pretty good though, there's people (40,000 total) going from every single country in the world (bar 6 which don't have scouts)
In a bizzle, all.

They mentioned that Prince William went to the Scout thing on the news. I wonder if Wifle met him?

Returned today. It was absolutely the best thing I've ever done in my life. The whole atmosphere was incredible, its just so hard to describe. Its a bit like an airport, in that everywhere you look there is different nationalities and cultures, but unlike an airport everyone is your age and your all friends. It was incredible to just walk down the road and have people from loads of different countries high-fiving you and hugging you and stuff.
On my subcamp (which had about 2000 out of the 40000 people on it) there was us English, with Japan on one side, Nepal on the other side and Finland and USA opposite us, and it was awesome cos anyone you met you could just start chatting to and then invite them over for dinner to eat with the rest of your group, e.g one night we had a couple of Beligan friends over, another night it was Danish and American. I made good friends with a Dutch guy and some Swiss girls for instance.
@Me111: I didn't meet Prince William but I saw him at the opening ceremony. Actually, the 1 scout who was showing him round (Alistair) is from my unit, and so we called him "Golden Boy" for the rest of the camp.
I'll upload some pics when I get them.

There were definitely some there, although the ones opposite us were from Pennsylvania.

It got a lot of media coverage. I was pretty surprised.
