Saturday Soccer - Michael Wallace. Lost One day I was flying to England on British Airways. I landed in Heathrow. Then I took a cab to the Tower of London. Then I went to the crown jewels and I saw the medals first. But when I went to see the crown jewels were missing. So then I went to ask a Beefeater and he said he didn ' t know who took them. So then I went to Newcastle and I watched a football game against West Ham. Then I saw somebody with a big bag. Then I went to him and asked him what he had in the bag. He told me that he had robbed the Tower of London. Then the football game was finished. Newcastle had won three goals to one. Then I took him to a police man. He gave me a reward for finding the crown jewels. Then I flew back to Bermuda. The next week I told my parents my adventure. - Colm Singleton The Umbrella Players Yesterday we went to see the Umbrealla Players at Elliott School. John said I wonder how this button works?

News and they were kites in a kite flying contest. They had a game show called What Makes Me Angry? One contestant said that she came thirteenth and she was glad. The buzzer went. Sorry you told us something happy. Now our second contestant. What makes me really angry is when my brother breaks up my things. Your our new winner. Now this is a silly show its rediculous. Its a tie folks. The prize is millions and millions of home work. - Robin Simmons Lost One day in Liverpool there was an otter. He was lost in a forest.
