Velodrome Cycle Centre

Last Monday we went to Herne Hill for a cycle ride at the Velodrome.
They had a bike hire there and the guy in charge of the bikes he is a bike owner his name is gary.
Then we went on our bikes round the cycle path.
I know who can use the cycle track- Chris Hoy, Victoria Pendleton  and Bradley Wiggins.

The new staff

Last week it was Jess's last day and we said goodbye to her and gave her a farewell present of some pictures of us so she can take it wherever she wants it. I gave Jess a farewell card specially for her last day.

All four of us Robin Blue Eddie and Daniel Reid interviewed two new people - two ladies - one is called Ellen and one is Anna. Ellen can be part of Saturday group and Anna can be part of 19Plus staff.

Anna is very nice and very polite. Ellen as well  she's very polite and a very sensible person.

visit to treasure island

We went to Treasure Island the show at National Theatre.  
My mum did come her name is Viv.
It was about pirates, Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver.
I saw a really big ship.  
I know who played Jim Hawkins - Patsy Ferrin.
I know who played Long John Silver - Arthur Dirill.
I liked the parrot on Long John Silver's shoulder called Captain Flint
He kept saying PIECES OF EIGHT! PIECES OF EIGHT!!
Then we had sandwiches and water at the National Theatre. We went to the Olivier Theatre and took our seats and the show started. The lights went off and then the lights went on that stage and we saw Jim Hawkins. 
It was Andy O's birthday and we got ourselves a bus back to Cambridge House.

A La Westminster Cathedral!

We walked under that bridge, passed through Camberwell New Road, catched our bus at the Oval. We got the 381 to Victoria and got off near Victoria Station and then we walked to the Cathedral.

We went up the stairs and opened the door and went inside and we saw a ceiling when we looked up with angels and wings and they were swimming and there was a god. And it was a picture of heaven. And I saw the font.

And I went downstairs into the basement and then we had lunch in the café in the basement. We went round the church afterwards and we saw some pictures of a man swimming and angels with wings and the candles. I lighted a candle for Gary so I can remember him, 'cause I miss him and its really sad.

And then on the way out we went to the gift shop and bought a postcard of the font. and then we opened the door again and went down the steps to catch the bus.

And we saw a picture of a priest a la Pope. And a picture of people praying and then we saw an old picture of an old pastor; "Le Pastoral". And le Pope Jean Paula. The Vicar's name was A la Reece someone.

Trip to the Serpentine Sachler Gallery

We went to a gallery. The Serpentine Sachler gallery .We took a cab there.  It was dark.

We went to a mirror room - looking at reflections of ourselves. 

Mirrors...Where are you?

 

So smashing. A great room. I liked the reflections. The mirrors were moving making us spin around.

We saw some nets with lights moving shining down the nets making a lovely pattern.

A room with punchbags. We punched a doctor a boxer and a colonel and an American guy with a hat and a midwife with a baby.

 

 

 

 

There were upside down glasses .

There were red balls on the wall.

 

And we saw some balls jumping around each other- - you pressed a button. 

There was darts. 180!!!!

We threw a ball at a target. 

And we saw a mirror that makes your head look bigger. And your whole body was moving.

There was a lovely shop where we looked around.

We stood next to a statue  and had lunch in the park.  We had sandwiches  and Danny's chocolate birthday cake.

We did some birds spotting. There were ducks in the pond.  I saw a heron and two Egyptian geese.

A Visit to the Natural History Museum

 

Where did we go first when we went to the museum?
When we went to the museum we went up on the escalator didn't we? and we went through the earth and I enjoyed the big earthquake in that big supermarket from Japan.

And we saw the earth moving around and it was very hot, when the earth was moving round and the whole atmosphere.

 

I read something on that stone- Tempus Fugit- when time stands still, time doesn't wait for no man, and you said when people have lots of time to do lots of things.

And you were talking about the solar system and the solar eclipse. I was talking about the equinox five times over. I was talking about the equinox for this year 2015. The equinox will be on the 29th March British Summer Time begins and the clocks will go one hour forward on the equinox. The equinox means when the days and nights are at the same length, they are equal length. Then it gets darker a little bit later 8 o'clock or 6 o'clock . It starts getting dark round about 6, 6.15 up to 8, up to 7.

I enjoyed the dinosaurs even the moving dinosaurs .

One talked to me. It said it wanted to eat me. It was a good day on January 26 in 2015 we went to the Natural History Museum.

And that's it. I enjoyed it and I was happy.

We went for my birthday trip.
My favourite bit was the earthquake underneath
our feet. We got to try to hold on.
I liked the birds room I saw a big ostrich.
I saw taps running - it  dripped on sand.

 
We saw a T Rex moving.

At the very start Tris helped me up the escalator to the earth.
