I came home with my new reading book.....bearing a gold sticker! Yeah, a gold sticker, thats up two whole levels in one go.
It was our first netball club since the tournament. I think the experience has done us good, we played our matches in a much more relaxed and easy flowing way.
And despite two bridges being closed we managed to make it to gymnastics on time.
I've discovered chili sauce, 3 chili rated according to the side of the bottle too. It's lovely, but very, very hot.
They even made me to pick me up on time, which was good as Dad got to see me doing our tumble track obstacle course.
Wednesday
Hmmmm, not sure what happened, move along, nothing to see here.....
Thursday
Well the weather has been lovely for days, all my beloved puddles and mud have all but dried up. I've even had to revert to my normal school shoes instead of my wellies. Still, it's not all bad, we got to play in the Adventure playground at school until Ned finished dancing. It was great fun, Neave was there as well as all the boys, who at one point all removed their shirts much to my bemusement.
Friday
Last day of the week....yay.
I'd lost five minutes golden time this week, it's really got to me. We did sports leaders though, which soon cheered me up.
I'd lost an 'undisclosed' amount too. Oh well, never mind, easy come, easy go. A bit like my pocket money really. Mum is docking me £1 everytime i'm not dressed and ready for school in the mornings (after repeated requests). I'm down to zero this month already. Still, at least I can't lose any more now and I can max my pyjama time in the mornings.
It was the last week of the swimming term which meant fun week. It was great fun, we had some races, we played a game of water polo with the other classes and we played on the floating mats.
Saturday
Our first trip of the year to Legoland.
Indeed it was, well, it only opened the day before.
First stop was the boats.
Yep, and what a load of nonsense that ended up being.
Indeed it did, there were numerous attempts to sabotage each others vessel, at one point Dad and Ellis managed to get us spun right round and facing the opposite direction.
We had a bit of a photography session in general actually:
Then we went on the Wave Runner, a ride we don't often go on.
Thats because it isn't often sunny!!!
We got pretty soaked but it was excellent fun.
Onwards to the pirate boat, we sat too near the middle for our liking.
So we had another go and when we got to the gate mum asked if we could wait for the next ride and go on the end....result. The end is sooooo much better.
As we were just starting to dry out from the Wave Runner, we decided that the Viking River splash would be a good idea......we got soaked again!
We then zig zagged back accross the park for the Dragon roller coaster.
Before heading back the opposite direction again for the driving school.
This years big news here is the inclusion of one and one only Police car. Complete with Siren and flashing blues. Obviously I wanted it. Mum apparently told Dad that i'd manage it somehow, but he thought the odds were stacked against me.
I wasn't bothered.
So, as the gate opened sure enough I had manouvered myself to the front of the queue. Form there it was a burst of my best race walking (strictly no running allowed) to the location of the car that i'd been watching closely. It was pretty easy in the end, and here I am, real life Police Interceptor:
It was getting pretty late by now, we headed back up the hill, having a couple of goes on the little Duplo train which we still love.
And then getting pretty much the last go on the Fairy Tale Brook before it shut for the day.
Not a bad start to the season at all!
And home in time to watch my favourite programme, Saturday Night Takeaway (on +1 anyway).

We had to have lunch pretty much straight after of course, we do like an early lunch.
We found a nice bench in the sunshine and I took a rather good selfie of us all:

Sunday
Haircuts were called for, but it was pretty busy and we had to wait for hours, so after that it was straight to Alan and Hayleys for lunch.
We never really get to go there so it was quite a rare occasion.
Lunch was lovely and we had my special request for pud, Jammy bakewell tarts....lovely!

It was pretty late by the time we left for home but we still had time to make the most of the fading daylight with a trip to the park.
We had a kick about which was fun.
And I got stuck in my Gillet, which wasn't. The zip took a lot of persuading before I could be freed.

Monday
After school dancing was fun. I've decided to focus my attention on Harry, the lucky boy. It was like he had a shadow.
I arrived in time to watch the performance with a very red face from cross country. My cheeks were as hot as a radiator!

We helped Dad fix his bike wheel after tea.
I think we did a good job, it looked all lovely and shiny anyway.
