What Christmas is all about

This is what Christmas is all about:
Spending valuable time with family that is far away or close to home,and giving to the poor, so they can get a wonderful Christmas like we do. And helping parents make the tree with all the Christmas decorations that includes baubles and tinsel. And most of all the PRESENTS.

Adom's trip to America - the journey!

My America trip so far

I’ve got to say getting there was terrible this is how it went:the coach took close to 7 hours to to get to London and to make it a lot worse 45 minutes to get to Heathrow Airport and the bus to the hotel took ages to get to Heathrow and when it finally got there it took ages to get to the hotel.After the overnight stay at the hotel the the bus took ages to get there and then we got to Heathrow border security took ages and the plane was SO boring and took 9 hours 30 minutes.And once more border control took a long time to get out of the airport, but I finally had got there.

Poppi's 100wc - week 14...

One day I was walking in the park and   I heard a terrible hullabaloo coming from the haunted forest and then the noise stopped I ran  up to it  and a total stranger  ran up to me and belted “don’t you take one more step you do know about the hunted forest.” 

The next day I went to school and I heard the  same sound but at school but in the willow and again but on the field I was creeped out. Is this the end?

Then the noise stopped...

It just happened all of a sudden.I was sitting in my pink and purple bedroom when everything turned silent. Outside where everybody was playing was silent. Downstairs where mum and dad were cooking the tea was as quiet as a mouse. “Strange” I thought. “ One minute I couldn't even hear myself think and the next,well there was nothing. Maybe I’m just dreaming. This has never happened before. Why don’t I go downstairs and see when tea’s going to be ready.

When I got downstairs into the kitchen I saw that everything was frozen even mum and dad...

One night I couldn't get to sleep. There was a drilling sound going on in the construction area down the road. I was up all night waiting for it to quieten, and then the noise stopped. I heard a cry though, coming from the same place. I dared to peek out of the window to see what was going on. I was astounded to see that the drill was actually stuck into the workers foot! 
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!" He screamed some more. Then his blood started spilling out, and he slowly fell to the ground... DUH-DUH-DUH!!!

26th November 1922:
Today the strangest thing happened this is how it goes:
My crew and I trudged into the terrible tomb.I heard a slight noise like a snake slithering
along the sands or a scarab beetle scurrying along,what was it?
Later in the burning day the noise suddenly stopped.
WE WERE TRAPPED IN.
Someone or something had locked us in.Lord Carnarvon, Lady Evelyn Herbert and I  were locked in the dark passages.It was spooky and terrifying.
My heart pounded like a drum and as loud.
My face turned to fear and my smile turned upside down.
I may be Howard Carter well known but i am not a good detective I need to know what it was.
All of a sudden I heard Lord Carnarvon screamed”HELP!!!”.........................

I tumbled down through the sticky mud into the deep dark trench and then the noise stopped.  All the explosions stopped for a moment.

I could hear my fellow soldiers above me firing their dangerous weapons at the enemy again.  The explosions started and the peace had gone.

I ventured to the top of the trench and peered over the edge. My eyes met with a dreadful sight, full of death and destruction, the landscape no longer looked beautiful as it once had. I frantically started to search for my best friend John, but he was nowhere to be seen….

Charlotte's 100wc - week 14...

As I stalked through the ghostly wood at night with the rustling of the leaves coming from behind me, the trees shaking from side to side whispering to me, the screeching of the bats zooming through the sky, then I turned back and the noise stopped. I peered to the side and saw a misty figure, dashing around the area I was in, who was it?
I raised my lantern above my eyes to see nothing but a shadow following mine fading into the moonlight. Seconds later I was hearing those noises again: this time they didn't stop.

Extracts of Anne Frank's diary:

I feel like I've done nothing but scuttle around in this annex my whole life. I do wish this tragic war would stop! I'm getting fed up of charming Peter, and this life! All you can hear is the sound of gruesome gun shots whistling through the air then blowing up beneath our enemies feet, and then the noise stopped. I surged with excitement,could it be? Could the bloodcurdling and sinister,spine-chilling then unfortunate war be finally over? I zipped out of bed then ran, practically tripping over to my mum's compartment, MUM?

Lily B's clown story!

One unlucky day I was walking to school and noticed a poster on the classroom door.

WANTED! PIE-THROWING CLOWN ESCAPED FROM THE CIRCUS! BEWARE!

I decided to ask Mr. Kenyon what had happened with this clown.

“Well, the other day at the circus a clown who got angry when nobody showed up to watch his pie-throwing performance stormed out angrily. He is now wandering the streets looking for people to throw pies at.”

“Ok,” I answered, as I walked over to my seat. Lessons began normally, until we watched a video and turned the lights off. A strange figure turned up behind Mr. Kenyon with a circular object in his hands. It was the clown! We all started giggling and pointing, so Mr. Kenyon turned around and SPLAT!!! The pie landed right in his face and then slid down to the floor. Everyone got sent home early, and we admitted this had been the BEST SCHOOL DAY EVER!!! ;)

The right racket

And then the noise stopped it was the most terrible, deafening noise I have ever heard in my life the horrendous noise sounded like someone blowing into a flute as hard as possible and a baby screaming like heck and well all the bad noises in the Universe.I would probably need a hearing test after that right racket especially nan, definitely nan or me because I've terrible hearing.My mum would have had the most horrible scream it would at least make me sick or would of killed me and maybe been worse than other.

Joe's 100wc - week 14...

I've been up here for ages. It's 1939, France and I'm in my attic.  I want to get out of here but I'm afraid of what's going on under my feet... I can hear gun fire from the street below my window! Wait a minute, listen, SILENCE.  "What happened?" I asked mum. "Everything was noisy and then the noise just stopped."  Suddendly I heard a big "BOOM!" I know I shouldn't, but I take a quick look out of the window.  Mum spots me and tells me off.  It looks like I'm going to be up here for a good few weeks.

The Start Line...

The start line. The most terrifying place for an athlete and that's where I was in Beernam, Belgium at midday on Sunday the 24th of November 2013. Boom! The gun went I was right in the of mash, suddenly I had to dismount and run as fast as I could up this really steep hill I remounted and after that I knew that I wasn't going to win but I had to keep believing. As I was coming towards the end of the first lap I had to do a sprint, the second lap it was also the last there was actually a bit of tarmac where I could really get some pace up then I had to run through a pool of sand after that it was just a steep bank and a corner and then the finishing straight where the commentator shouted out "Joseph L of Great Britain", then won a trophy which really sewed it up me. (I'm not going to mention the result).
