Whats up

Today is Sunday! Usually on Sunday my family and I go to church in the morning and come back at lunch time and spend the rest of the afternoon doing what we feel like. But today only my Dad and my two brothers are going to church because everyone else is sick. We've just got a little cold.

Yesterday Naomi and I didn't have hockey because the grass fields we were going to play on were to wet. But thankfully we will be having a catch up game!!! I love catch up games because their usually played at night and it is so cool playing when it's dark and the lights are on.

Today my big brother is going up to stay with our Grandfather while our Granny go's for a little holiday. I think he's really looking forward to it.

Yesterday the poll that was for my background closed. My new background received 6 votes and the old one only got 2 so I think I will be keeping the new on. It's nice to have a fresh change every now and then.

It's a really nice sunny day here today!! There's not a cloud in sight. I love sunny days.

That's a update on what has been happening here.

North & South

I have just finished reading North & South!!!
I'm really excited because now I can watch the movie!

North & South is written by Elizabeth Gaskell.

I found it hard to first get into the book at first, I thought it had a bit of a slow start to it and the way the words are put down it took a little while to understand things but after that it was really quite easy.
I really enjoyed reading it because it wasn't full lots of romance and stuff like that, I found there was a lot more to it. My favourite character was Margret. (Well she is the heroine so how could you not like her). I liked her because I thought she was a pretty tough person, brave as well and I thought she was easy to like.

I didn't like Mr Thornton nearly as much as Margret. I thought it was really silly of him to get so upset and in my opinion sookey when Margret refused him and when he heard she was seen with another man at the train station.

I think it's really sad how Mr and Mrs Hale both die. I kind of thought from the beginning that Mrs Hale would die but I never expected that Mr Hale would die. Mr Bell was very nice. I thought he was very good to Margret when Mr Hale died, but when Mr Bell died I thought to myself, 'What if everyone dies?' but thank goodness no one else died after Mr Bell.


Another character who I like was Bessie Higgins. I thought she was really nice. It was really sad that she died too. (While I was reading the book I couldn't believe how many people died). Bessie's father Mr Higgins was nice too.

All up I really enjoyed reading North & South, (even though it is a really sad book) but it was worth it.

At the moment I'm reading Jane Eyre and after that I plan to read Rangers Apprentice. I haven't read it before but I have heard so much about it that I thought I should read it.

(I'm so sorry if the number of times I said 'died' bothered you).

Robin Hood Quiz

I found a Robin Hood quiz today.

It turns out I'm Robin Hood!

You are Robin, Lord of Locksley Mannor, Earl of Huntington, also (am more commonly) known as Robin Hood! You are patriotic, dedicated, and proud. At the same time, you are compassionate and kind. You have a thing about helping people, but not always for the right reasons. You want the people to love you, and that means you are somewhat arrogant. Still, deep down you're a good person. (Played by Jonas Armstrong. Does anyone else think he's delightfully atractive?!)





If you want to take the quiz click here.

Have fun.

Robin Hood!!!!!! :(

Last Saturday night the last episode of the BBC Robin Hood was on.
I'm very disappointed because Robin Hood DIED!!!!!!!!!

The reason why he died is because the Jonas Armstrong, (the guy who plays Robin) said that season 3 was the last season he was going to be in. So the Producer and all the other people making the movie set it all up so that they could continue the show expecting to do and season 4. But BBC decided that they weren't going to do a season 4 after they had finished season 3.

If they were going to do another season I think Archer would have been the new Robin Hood. It is rather annoying that they finished it show like that. Although I think when they killed Marion, it ruined the show a bit.

I sure hope I didn't spoil it for you. That's how we found out Robin died. A lady from our church gets up every week to do what we call announcements, and she has 2 kids who really like Robin Hood. On the night of the final episode we decided to watch something else that was on TV and watch Robin Hood the next day on a website called iview. We planned to watch it after church. But when the lady got up to do the announcements she told everyone that Robin Hood died. So that ruined it for us a little bit.

I've really enjoyed the 3 season of Robin Hood. I would of liked it if they did some more.

Another Trial!

Some of you may remember a post I did about a cricket trail that Naomi and I were going to, it was for a U/14's girls rep team. Well nothing became of that.

On Thursday our Dad got an email for a guy who was at the trail we went to. He and another lady are looking for girls to come to another trial. It turns out that this team is a U/15's girls rep team that will be competing in the Country Championship. The guy who sent us the email says's that Naomi and I should make it to the easily.

Naomi and I are very excited. We are excited at the fact that the guy thinks we should make it in easily. But we're not in the team yet and we will have to see how we go.


The trial is in two weeks so we have a bit of time to get back into cricket.

I'll let you know how we go.
