I get into a Tank

So it's been a wk. I been up to quite a bit. I been cooking my own food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On Monday I cooked Chilli Con Carne, Tuesday: Lamb casserole, Wednesday: Tuna and Mushroom Pasta and Thursday: sausages. 


On Wednesday, I once again went to the pub quiz and we had r best ever performance. We came 4th, got full marks in 2 rounds and were 2 points away from coming 3rd and getting some money.


On Saturday I went to a place in Winchester to drive tanks and such. It was my dad's birthday pressy as he has apparently wanted to do it for a while. But he wanted some company, he doesn't ave many friends, so I went a long with him. So I got to drive a Chieftain Main Battle Tank: Now it's not too hard to drive. There is a stick either side of the seat for steering, a throttle and an annoying gear peddle. There is a brake but u don't use it (reassuring isn't it). No clutch which made my life easier and all I had to do is drive it forwards and backwards. Here's a pic for u: 
















Next up was the FV 432 Armoured Personnel Carrier. This also had two steering levers but this time they were in front of the seat. U have to pull them quite hard to make it move. It's automatic but has no brakes (just take ur foot of the pedal). And this one i was allowed to go around a circuit with. Here's a pic and yes that's me driving:

Then it was the Abbot Mobile Gun. It was basically like the carrier but heavier. Here's a pic:

Finally there was some Quad bikes and that was it. I really enjoyed my day out and here's my certificate to prove that it really happened: 


















And that was my wk.


Bye


P.S: Here's a bear that wants a hug and if u aren't right now hugging the screen which ur reading this on then ur strange. 

Results r in

So results. They came up quickly. It only seems a while ago that we were actually taking the exams. So I Got into Greenwich :). Sadly I didn't get into Cardiff but I'll be v happy at Greenwich (where I'll actually be in Kent). I was happy with all my grades except Maths cause I've had a B in all 4 of the papers but I ended up with an overall C as my coursework was a D. I don't want to work out how close I was to a B as it was probably quite close. But it doesn't matter that much as even if I had gotten that B I wouldn't ave got into Cardiff. 


After I had read my results and gone onto UCAS and read it saying 'Congratulations! Your place at University of Greenwich (G70) to study Mechanical Engineering (H300) has been confirmed.' I decided to go out and party with my friends who had been celebrating since 10. I went to the pub and tired some brilliant cocktails then didn't feel that well the next day. I'm a lightweight but I don't care. 


Friday and today i been doing hardly anything except practising ironing :) 


Anyway I forgot to do two things on my last blog. Ask where in Cyprus GEORGE FRANK OWEN BARK went (I found out at the pub that he went all over Cyprus (Both North and South)) and have an X factor Rant. Now if u look at the bottom of this post u'll see what time i started writing this and it was whilst X factor was on (which is still on now). I would normally watch X factor but now that it's in its 7th(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) series it's gotten boring. And what happened to Joe. The same thing that happens to all the winners. They disappear then reappear a yr later when we r already focused on the new contestants. Also the show is on for two long as it's on now till Christmas which is  4 months away!!!!!!!!!!!!! 


Well that's about it. I hope u were all happy with ur results.


Bye

I'm back :)

Yep i'm finally back from my trip to Cyprus. It was amazing and v hot. High 30s everyday even though there was more cloud this year and we even think that it rained once over night though we never saw it. So my whole family (all 4 of us) and Vicky (my sister's best friend) went to North Cyprus quite close to Kyrenia. We had a different villa this time which was just as gd but in some ways better. I didn't really get up to much other than sunbathing and I still don't ave much off a tan. But, like I said I might, me and my parents (the girls didn't want to) climbed a mountain. Well we were driven up most of it but we walked the last leg. It was still hard mainly due to the heat. The mountain had a castle called St Hilarion all around it. We went all the way up to the peak which was 732m/2401.574803ft. We also went to an abbey called Bellapais which wasn't that interesting. I went to the beach twice and had a meal where u cook the food on a stone grill and the meat was wonderful. I also brought a kinder egg toy over there and an Ülker Toto which is a Turkish rip of of a kinder egg. Amazingly the kinder egg toy I got was from a set that i already had one of which is basically impossible due to how many sets there are. So i now ave 21 kinder toys and 1 Ülker Toto. That's 22 altogether which is the no. of my house. Here is an advert for an Ülker Toto just so u can see how alike they really r.

And that was my holiday. I currently haven't put my pics on my computer but they will soon appear in a post.

2morrow I'm going to Lakeside Park to celebrate Jen's bday and then the day after 2morrow is Results AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

So when I next to a post I will revel the answers if I feel up to it.

gd luck for everyone on Thursday
