New Addictions

My latest addiction is cross stitch, you make crosses on a sheet with holes in to make a picture. I like minecraft so I did some tools and armour, it is easy to do minecraft things because it is made of blocks and squares. I am starting a new Minecraft cross stitch.

Living below the line

With only one pound each a day we are going to have the experience of living like the poor who don't have much money like we have. When we do it I think it will be hard because we cant have sweets or snacks


The menu I made consists of:


Breakfast

Toast with jam

Lunch

Mum & dad baked beans on toast    
Luke Ben & Amy spaghetti hoops with toast
Choc ices

Tea

Macaroni cheese with cauliflower

Chocolate mousse  

the solar eclipse

The solar eclipse only shown about every 15 years, we went to see it at Heaton park with our friends.there are full eclipse's and part eclipse's, we saw a part eclipse. An eclipse is where the moon comes in front of the sun.

This eclipse is the one that we saw, you had to look through something dark or you could be blind. So we took the welding mask.
After it ended we went to the  playground and had some fun there.

I am 11

I went to sleep last night, all exited about tomorrow. In the morning I woke up at 5 o clock and went down stairs to find a big box with a sheet covering it. My mum and dad shouted for me to come back up stairs and go back to bed, but I couldn't get to sleep and I had to wait 2 more hours until I could have my presents. Eventually the time came so when every one was down stairs I started to open my cards. Then I opened one that my brother had got me it was a Lego ninjago pen.

Next I took the cover off the big box then I opened it. It was empty! I am just joking, it wasn't empty, it was full of stuff - it was an electric drum kit.

 Later we went to Queens park and went on the bike track with our bikes our friends came to the park with us after thy came to our house for lunch and I got a Lego chinook from them.

 Later we had  some more friends round for tea and I got some cool custom cards, sweets, loom bands and a space rail after tea my grandma and granddad came round and I got a Lego police station                   

lego marble run

I have recently had a mad thing about marble runs so I made one out of Lego another of the things I am mad about. It has 2 lifts - one a piston stair lift and the other a belt lift. The belt lift can lift the marbles higher but the stair lift looks cooler. The stairs are sloped so when the marble is on a lifting piston stair it lifts and drops on to a stationary stair and when the next step goes lower the marble falls down until it is at the end and goes on to the track.

Belt lift

                                                   

Stair lift

                 

The track is made of a 2 brick high and the width make it as long as you want to then add some side pieces to stop the marble from falling off.

IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME

What is the first thing that you think about when I say Christmas? ... presents, so lets start with that. So at six I woke up and obviously woke up everyone else. Ran down the stairs to find two strange shaped  items wrapped in a cloth sheet, but first I opened the present that my sister got me, it was a chocolate orange. Next I opened a bike light (our old one had broken) so this is a better one, now we can go out riding in the evening. Then I opened the strange shaped one - it was a flicker scooter. I'd been wanting one for ages. We also have some friends that bought me some loom bands.

Later we went to church and took part in the Christmas service, we had fun seeing people try
to relate the new toy or present to the bible.


Later we spoke to our grandparents on the phone and they said that they had got us something, they told us that it was in the games room so we climbed up the ladder to find a table tennis table. We have enjoyed playing with it.





In the afternoon we went to our grandparents for a special Christmas tea, along with our Aunty, Uncle and cousins

All we need to do now is remember the real meaning of Christmas.

We did an advent countdown with the different names of Jesus, my favourite was Alpha and Omega.

                               

nerf cs 18

The Nerf CS 18 is the fastest firing Nerf blaster ever, so it is classed as a machine gun that's why I wanted it. It fires 3 darts per second WOW now that is fast.

The other features are:

  a clear 18 dart magazine,
  4 sling adapters ,
  an adjustable stock
  barrel attachment and
  5 railings for attachments





To rev the gun you pull the little trigger on the handle and it will make a whirring sound, then you can pull the main trigger then it sends darts madly out! If you are finding the guns front heavy you could add a handle grip to the front.
There is a good built in scope and a flip up sight but they don't really work but they are good for show and looks. If the darts are clogging up you can open the jam door to get into the firing mechanism so don't fear for the jam door is here! If you are in a battle you can run round with the stock collapsed and carry it by the carry handle on the top it is really useful for manoeuvrability
