A Journey to the Car Boot Sale

We went to the car boot sale and Noami bought a bird called Richard. You press a button on Richard's back and it's wings go flap. Rachel bought a two dolphin ornament and gave it to Emily. When we were at the car boot sale, Naomi bought a nativity set. I bought a dog called Blackie and half of its ear was cracked. I bought an ornament of a cute seal. Naomi bought a kitten in a present. I bought a Barbie hairdryer that actually dries Barbie's hair. Naomi bought two tiny ornaments of a panda and a baby elephant. I bought a swan with Thumbelina on the swan's back. I bought a nativity set and was given four angels. One of the angels' heads broke off.

A Journey to Tattershall Castle

We went to Tattershall Castle and we saw a big castle with a dungeon in the middle of the doors. The door with the dungeon in was the one with noises like creeping rats and mice and skeletons and witches giggling and it looked green as an ogre. In one of the doors there were 159 stairs, which led to the balcony where you could see down to the river, lakes and the duck pond. There were some balconies at Tattershall Castle but we couldn't climb onto them because we had no big huge ladders. We climbed up to the top of the staircase to the top of the battlements. We learned about how you fight an army through the crosses on the windows. We saw the toilets that when the King needed to go to the toilet, then he went into a room and a servant had to get a flannel wet with hot water then wipe the King's bottom! Dad said, "If I was the King, you'd be about the right height to wipe my bottom"! We had a picnic and some cookies, then afterwards we went to Carole's house and we saw a big huge cockerel that did the loudest cock-a-doodle-do in the morning in the whole universe! We went into their wendy house that had a slide and some ladders.They had a pink water gun that was see-through and some plastic plates and cups and Luke played house with us.

A Skegness Holiday

I went to a beach in the land of Skegness. First it was sunny, but then it started raining, so we had to go to a warm, warm, warm swimming pool. First I had to go on Dad's knee, then I got to go on the water slide by ny very own self. There were some cars but they weren't actually cars they were like sitting on armchairs. They were big and foamy and floated in the water. I went on a kid's slide that the face of an orca on each side. We were going to go to an indoor play area, but instead we went to the swimming pool. After the swimming pool, we went to McDonalds to buy some ice creams and then we went home.
