FnL Record Breakers
Earlier tonight scouts from 293rd St Faith & St Laurence Scout Troop broke the record for the most users ever online the Rea Valley Forums on this very website.
They set the record last year with 18 users online simultaneously & broke it by one user to set a new all-time high of 19 users online.
Is there any other Group out there who can topple their 2-year victory..?
