P.S ...

...I also want to send one of my Christmas cards to Sineod .

I asked Mum who was nicer Zillyan or Sineod today. And I asked Dad. The both gave me a strange look but I know the answer.

Cards fit for a President

Mum is sending packets of the Christmas cards we made to some of our friends and family. Then they can send them to their friends and family. I made the Father Christmas one and Zill made the angel/Xmas tree one.

I want to send a packet to Barack Obama but Mum says if I send it to the White House where Presidents live he may not get it until after Christmas. That wouldn't be very good because then all his cards will be late.

Happy Birthday James ...

Well actually it was yesterday but Cosmic and I went to his party this afternoon. Zill could not go because she was at Stagecoach all afternoon. Oliver, Emily's brother, was there and so was Gail.

The party was at Springboard and we all played in softplay, joined in pass the parcel and ate a yummy tea.

I think we gave James the same present as Oliver - luckily his Dad says he can never have too many cars!

I will try and link to some photos when James' Dad, Miles, hs put them up on flickr - hint hint Miles.

We three Kingslea from Horsham are ...

... Derbie, Zilly and Cosi there are.

School Christmas fete tonight and Zill and I had a great time. Cosmic enjoyed it too but was very grumpy when he was told he'd had enough cake and sweets!

I won a party book on the tombola (Mrs Etherington was running it with Jane from my nursery) and bought some books, cakes, an alien in slime and some Dr Who cards. When I got home I found I had an ultra-rare sticker in one of my packs - how cool?

I also saw Sineod. She goes to my ballet and I think she is in year 5 or maybe even 6. She gave me a cuddle. Then I tried to talk to her later but I thought she ignored me .... Mum and Dad told me to go and say hi again to see if she was really ignoring me or just hadn't seen me ....

Phew .... she smiled and said hi. I ran to tell Dad and blushed a little bit.

I like Sinoed.

Twit-Twoo

I am a barn owl.

I have a spotty front (there are spots on my brown jumper) and fluffy underwings (otherwise known as Zilly's white furry gillet).

I also have furry brown boots that George gave me. They are owlish and will keep my feet warm.


The poncho and hat were Mummy's when she was little!

Martha - 0 (0%)

Not putting up a new poll yet as I'm thinking. Ideas welcome ... you were all useless at ideas for my owl costume tomorrow - in the end Mum and Zill had to come up with an a costume - so try to do better this time!

Teatime Max

Max came round to tea this evening and we
talked about Dr Who all the way home. He is the first friend I have ever had round for tea after school - except Sofia of course but she used to come before I started reception!

Once at home I showed him my room and all my toys. He loves Dr Who (of course) and spaceships like me.

After tea we made cakes for our Christmas fayre tomorrow evening. The best ones win a prize. Last year Zill won the big cake section - she made a heart shaped sponge - well, Sarah did. Mum saw it being bought too - which made her laugh.

After that Max and I went upsairs and watched Dr Who on the laptop on my bed. We watched the episode with cybermen ... and daleks!

A hoot!

School sent home a note in my book bag today saying my class has to dress up as owls on Friday.

Wondering what sort of owl I should be and what I can wear? I have made a headdress at school but need an outfit for my body ... thoughts?

Bizarre Bazaar

Today was our Christmas bazaar at school.

Zill and I each took in 2 pounds and a plastic bag for our goodies and we visited lots of stalls set up around school.

It was in school time and we got to visit the special cafe for a drink and cake too. Zill and I made crispie cakes to take in - I made brown ones and Zill made white and brown ones.

Joe Blogs

We went up to London today to see Than and Helen for brunch.

We went to Joe Allen restaurant near Covent Garden. We came here last time with Than and Helen and Zilly and I really like it. Cosi likes the food and the apple juice but is less convinced by the hand dryers in the toilets. They are very loud and funny looking and he is sared of them.

Than and Helen gave me Star Wars lego for my birthday. I am very excited and Dad says he is going to help me put it together.

Than left early to go to football. He says he will take me at my next birthday. Mum is not convinced because he supports a team called Tottenham but I think it will be very cool and I want to see the giant cockrel.

After lunch Helen walked around Covent Garden with us. We saw men on unicycles and people pretending to be statues. We also splashed in puddles and it rained!

I hailed my first cab on the way to the restaurant and when we were on the way back I tried to get into another. Helen told me I did it really well - like a real Londoner - but someone beat me into it! In the end Helen hailed one - I watched and leanrnt.

M-I-C-K-E-Y-M-O-U-S-E

I'm going to be Mickey Mouse in my ballet show.

Miss Joan has just told me. I am so excited.

I get to lead all the big children out onto the stage !

Excaliber

Sofia and Ostyn came round for tea after school today. We had fish and chips and played until really late.

After they went home we should have gone to bed but Zill and I persuaded Mum and Dad to let us watch last week's Merlin on i-player.

It was great - a dead knight appeared and wanted to kill Uther. The dragon breathed on a special sword which would kill the dead but made Merlin promise only Arthur would use it.

Uther used it. The bad dead knight disappeared. The dragon was cross and Merlin had to take the sword away and put it somewhere no mortal would ever find it. He threw it in the lake where the other worlders lived ....

We we had to watch it tonight so we were up to date for tomorow evening. The trailer suggests Arthur might find out Merlin is magic .... this would not be good for Merlin but would be good for us!

Now then

My sister doesn't have a blog so she has to post her insults on bits of paper ...

Here is her response to my blog yesterday .... she is so old fashioned!

Now

I've just had tea and I am doing my blog now. AND Zillyan is annoying me and being very loud and stupid. She says she is being funny, but I think its only funny when I do it. Cosi is being the calmest.

And that is my blog for today.

The New Poll

So the new question is: Who would you most like to be your babysitter? The Doctor, Sarah Jane, K9, Captain Jack, Martha or Mickey?

Mum is gonna help me put it up when she gets in so watch this space ... well the one in the top left corner to be precise ...

Not sure what the next poll is yet but I will put my mind to it after my cello lesson (not during of course!) and post something this evening.

Case study

I have a new cello case for my new bigger, 1/8 size, cello.

Grandad bought it for me for my birthday and it arrived by Pareclforce.

It is the same as my last case but has a different handle .... and is bigger of course.

Kay will be very happy as she says my cello gets out of tune easily when there is no case.

Thanks Grandad and Bernadette!

I love my Mum ...

...more than infinity and beyond.

Is there anything more than "more than infinity and beyond"?

I love my Mum more than infinity and beyond plus one.

Medal Medly

Just had lunch and about to go to Miranda's birthday party but thought i'd quickly tell you about this morning.

We had a gymnastics competition and I got a certificate! Mum and Dad said I did really well and I don't want to give up anymore. It was really fun - I did a floor routine and jumped on the vault.

Zilly did really well too. She got a silver medal in her group and Ocean got gold. Mum and Trudie were crying they were so proud.

I have wrapped Miranda's present but am not sure what to wear to the party. Perhaps I will watch a weeny bit of telly while I decide ... after all it is one of my favourites "Timothy goes to school" on Tiny Pop!

Hole in the wall that is letting in water

Zill and I have discovered a strange television programme.

Weird silver people scream and shout a lot and then stand on a board surounded by water. One of the people is a man who was dancing on Children in Need's Strictly Come Dancing yesterday and we didn't know anyone else. He is called Anton.

A foam wall with lots of cut out shapes comes towards them and they have to make themselves into a shape that will fit through the cut out shapes.

If the silver people make the right shape they do not fall into the water. If they make the wrong shape they break the foam and are knocked into the pool.

Zill and I were cheering the blue and silver team today and they won. Anton was not on the blue team. We danced around the room a lot and choked a bit on popcorn.

Dr Knew

I may have just seen the new Doctor on TV.

Children in Need showed a bit of the Christams Special with David Tennant and another actor who said he was the Doctor. Dad says the other Doctor is a man called David Morrissey and some people have said he is really going to take over.

I don't think he'll really be the Dr Who but I'm worried if he is that I won't like him. Daddy isn't sure who the new Dotor will be either and has asked people what they think on the Doctor Who Magazine Facebook Discussion Board.

He says this makes him cool. Mum says this makes him sad. She doesn't think Mr Morrissey will be the new man in the Tardis. She is still holding out for John Simm.

Happy Baby to Alastair and Mrs Alastair

Poll results 11 Nov & new poll for Georgia

Results from this week's poll:

Who is your favourite old Star Wars baddie?

Darth Vader 4
Darth Maul
General Grievous 1
Boba Fett
The Emperor 1
Jabba the Hutt 3

9 votes in all which is a bit poo really you guys BUT we discovered you can only vote once from one computer so Cosi and Mum didn't get to vote and Dad isn't sure if his vote went through either!

So maybe the poll doesn't really work ... or is rigged .... but I'm going to try again anyway. This week - for Georgia - the High School Musical poll ....

Sister sister

The Star Wars poll still hasn't finished so I'll probably have to wait until tomorrow to post the new one. You'll never guess what it is going to be ... except you won't have to because I am going to tell you ...

Mum went out with some of her work friends after Obama won being the President. One of Mum's friends took her daughters with her - I have met them before at Mum's work. Mum showed Georgia - the eldest - my blog and she thought a High School Musical poll would be good so ...... well, you will have to wait until tomorrow for the exact question.

I read with Mrs Etherington today and I am now on red sticker books. I am very happy and Mum told Zill how good I was getting at reading.

Cosmic is now wearing pants - with Iggle Piggle on them. He is trying very hard and didn't mean to wee on Zill's floor before bed.

Zill sighed a lot tonight - oh, and asked Mum and Dad whether she could have a sister now.

No guest blogging here!

Last night I stayed the night with the Everingtons. I was too busy playing to blog sorry.

I slept over in Zara's room and then spent this morning playing DS and stuff with her. We also played on the Wii - Wii sports and the wii-fit board.

Laila and Francesco came over to Moo's for lunch. Then the rest of my family turned up - Mum, Dad, Zilly, Cosi, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Zal and a man called Bruce.

After lunch I went to Jack P's party. We played in soft play and had tea. Max, Owen and Justin were there too.

I was a bit tired and din't really want to write my blog today but when Mum suggested Zilly guest blogged I suddenly found the energy .....

Save Dog

This is what Obama said about the new family dog.

I think they should get a rescue sheepdog. His daughter will probably be allergic to the dog but she should get "allergic pills".

I hope they call the dog "Save Dog". This seems a good name.

Rocket man

We went to see the firework display at my school last night.

The fireworks were really colourful and there were lots of bangs. Mum stayed at home with Cosmic because she thought he wouldn't like the noise.

Zilly and I also got some lighty-up ears so we could see each other in the dark. I took my torch too so I could find my way back.

Get on your bike and search for milk

It was my turn on the bikes today.

The bikes live in the junior playground shed.

I went on the two seater bike with Jack P. We took turns to sit at the front and cycled around the playground.

My other friends in Rabbits went on scotters and other bikes. While we were on the bikes, Squirrels played. Next time it will their turn on the bikes and we will play.

A little time ago Mrs Etherington told us that we couldn't have milk because someone stole it and today we hunted around the playground for clues as to who it may have been.

Me and my friends are going to find out who stole the milk. We are going to stay up at bedtime, go to Kingslea and try and catch the milk snatchers.

Top dog

I was up early this morning with Zill and Cosi to watch the news.

Mum bought us breakfast in the living room and we watched pictures of Barack Obama and his family. They looked very happy because the Americans voted for him to be their next President.

Here is a bit of his speech saying he is happy to be the new President.

Here is all his speech saying he is happy to be the new President.

We also heard him speaking and listened to a lady who said when she was younger black people could not vote in America ... just because they had brown skin!!!! Zilly and I couldn't believe this.

I have just read Cat's comments on my blog entry from last night .... Barack Obama is going to get a dog as a treat for becoming President. If I become President may I have a dog Mum - please?

Election night

When Mum got home from work we finished dinner very quickly then watched the news. We saw Barack Obama and John McCain voting in America. They probably voted for themselves. We also saw Sarah Palin - she has the same colour hair as Zilly.

Mum explained who were guests and who worked for the BBC like her. Lots of BBC people are in America watching what is happening in the election.

I really wanted to stay up because we will only know if Obama has won in the middle of the night. Mum said it would be okay to get up early in the morning though because that is when there will be pictures of the new President Obama ... she hopes.

Mum and Zill talked about Obama and Zill said she would vote for him. I would vote for Ralph Nader - mainly because I don't want to choose the same person as Zilly but don't want to say John McCain. Mum found a picture of him and is going to help me put it on this entry so you can see him too!

Poll results - 3rd November 2008

Who is your favourite old Star Wars goodie?

Chewbacca 5
Han Solo 1
Luke Skywalker 0
Princess Leia 3
R2-D2 2
C-3PO 5

Total votes cast: 16

V. happy Chewie won ... well joint won anyway.

Mum and Dad say Luke Skywalker didn't get any votes because he is a bit wet ... I don't remember this bit in the films but he does get damp in Yoda's swamp ... perhaps that's what they mean!

New vote ... baddies ...

Doctor in the blog

David Tennant was on telly this monring talking about why he isn't going to be the Doctor anymore ...... thought you might like to see it here.

Numa Numa Yoda relived

Quickly - before bed - I mustn't forget to thank AJ and George for my lovely birthday presents.

We all played with my special new Star Wars projector torch in Zilly's room after our story .... we turned out the lights and made the yoda shape dance while we sang numa numa just like this ... well almost but perhaps we need to practice a little.

Artful Dodger

While we played at George's house this afternoon Mum visited Rob, Anna and Baby James. We were not allowed to go because James is very new and everyone is still recovering.

Mum showed us this picture though and promised we would be able to meet him soon.

Later on we went to the funfair. Cosi went on a flying aeroplane and a train. George, Zilly, Jules and I went on the Dodgems.

We took two cars. I went with AJ - she drove because I could not reach the pedals - we did lots of crashing.

Before we left I made AJ promise to vote in this week's blog poll. I may have asked her to vote for Chewie but I don't want to skew the vote so .... vote for whichever very furry Wookie you want AJ .... I won't mind!

Three pair pizza

We made our own pizzas for lunch - we made 3 - Cosi and Mum; me and Mum and Zill and George. We all voted for the best pizza - but weren't allowed to choose our own. Cosi's won.

After pizza George showed us Spore on the pc. How cool? Just in case Father Christmas, or one of his elves, is reading this:

"I would really like this game in my stocking...please ...pretty please ... I am being very good!"

Ice magic

Zilly and I went ice-skating at Lee Valley ice rink this morning with George and AJ.

Mum and Cosi watched because Cosmic was a little small. There was another 2 year old skating - parantly she has lessons - but Mum wasn't convinced.

I skated way better than last time - even managing to stay up without holding on to anyone. AJ and George took me round - Geroge is getting really good too and AJ has always been a bit of an Ice Queen.

They took Zill round the rink too but by the end she was was skating round by herself!

After ice skating we went back to George's house for lunch.

Trick or sweet ....

Yesterday was very busy .....

Nicci and India came to play in the morning and then Sarah took me to Tully's Farm in the afternoon with Jake, Josh, Phoebe and Josie.

It was a special Hallowean visit and there was a really scary Spooky House. Phoebe thought everything was scary and when the people went "Ahhhhh" I was rally frightened too.

In the evening I went trick or treating with Lara, Zilly and Cosmic. Lara and Zilly were witches. I was Darth Vada and Cosmic was the Hallowean Donkey ..... what you haven't heard of the famous braying monster?
