The Beano

I'm going to be making up questions and then answering them.

When did I start reading The Beano?

I started reading The Beano at the end of 2009, about 4 years ago.

What's my favourite Beano comic?

It used to be Dennis the Menace, but now it's when the Beano characters have an adventure together.

Do I like Beano Turbo Battlerz?

Yes.

Do I ever read Dennis the Menace and Gnasher magazine?

Yes.

What's my favourite bit of Dennis the Menace and Gnasher magazine?

I like reading the comics that 'used to be owned by Dennis'.

What would I rate The Beano and Dennis the Menace and Gnasher (Beano Max)?

5/5

The Competition Kid

I was in my bedroom, reading my TWO favourite stories,

when I heard a VERY loud noise coming from outside.

I thought it was probably just a BIG spaceship flying past, so I carried on reading.

I only had a few pages to finish when Mum started SHOUTING at me to come

downstairs.

“HURRY UP!” she called.

What now, I wondered?

Mum sounded a bit cross.

“Have you been entering competitions again?” she asked me,

while pointing to the doorway.

“NO I haven’t!” I said. (Which was true – not since the last time.)

“Then what do you call THIS?”

 

I had no idea what was in the box. It could have been toys, games, money or even a console. But I had no idea! Then I realised I had entered a competition. I must've won! The next morning, at 2:54 am, I crept down to open the box. What the things inside it were? I had no idea. Hundreds of little creatures came out holding a note. The note said 'Ha-ha. You thought you won a competition. Instead, you won ants!' I felt like I was about to explode. Only one person would send me these. That would be my enemy, Frank. The next day at school, I saw Frank. As always, we didn’t speak to each other. I looked at him and he laughed at me. With hundreds of loose ants around my house, what could I do? Ask Frank to come and collect them? He would never do that. I could do something naughty in school and blame him. I decided I would do graffiti on the classroom walls at break time, when no one would be there. When I was doing this I heard the door open and there was the Head Teacher, watching me graffiti the classroom. I was in such big trouble. I got expelled! I wonder what my mum would’ve thought of this. I told the Head Teacher that Frank had sent me a box of ants and I was getting revenge. That (obviously) didn’t help. The next day I was in the local newspaper. There was a shop dedicated to chalk which had to shut down as no one wanted to be seen with chalk anymore. When I got home, I realised it wasn’t from Frank. I had posted myself the box. It was my handwriting. I posted it a year ago and I never received it. I just got expelled while getting revenge on myself. How could I have been so stupid? That was the worst day of my life!

Cool Candle

When I was recently on holiday, my mum bought a candle holder with 'chocolate' (it was wax)! You lit a tea light at the bottom of the holder and put some 'chocolate' on top. When we blew out the tea light, we left the scented 'chocolate' on the top of the holder. When it hardened, my mum tried to get it out. Then she realised that she could slide it out. The photo is of what the Cool (cold, not hot and amazing) Candle looks like now. The place I got it from is On A Wick and A Prayer: www.onawick.co.uk

Whipsnade zoo

On Saturday 10th August 2013, I went to Whipsnade zoo. When I was there, I saw: lemurs, wolverines, bears, penguins,elephants, giraffes, reindeer and more! It was very fun, especially the big slide. Out of 10, I would rate it...

9/10!

We saw the penguins being fed. At lunch, we could see flamingos. We also went on the steam train.

My favourite bit of the day was seeing the sea lion (NOT seal) show. During the show, sea lions jumped out of the pool with hoses, climbed up stairs and jump to high balls making a big splash. We learnt that sea lions and seals are different. Seals are boring while sea lions are not boring at all.

That's all I have to say apart from YOU SHOULD GO TO WHIPSNADE!

Photos soon!

BA Silent Picturehouse Kids

On Sunday (28th July 2013) I went to a British Airways event called Silent Picturehouse. They had done them the whole week. The day I went was a day with children's films. The choices were: The Muppets, Oz the Great and Powerful, Cars 2, Alice in wonderland or Up. I watched The Muppets. It was actually the third time I've watched The Muppets! At the end, children got goody bags. The included: biscuits, a chocolate lolly, a bag with activities inside, a bottle of water, a book to keep track of how far you've flown, a carton of juice, top trumps and a poster for the film Planes.
The website is here.

 

Now some photos:

Dr Who prom

Today I went to the Royal Albert Hall for the Dr Who prom! It was amazing. Matt Smith and Jenna Colemen were there! Matt's hair looked very funny.

At the prom there were Daleks, Cybermen, Saturnyns, an Ice Warrior and more! They showed videos of all 11 Doctors. The fifth doctor was there. So was the actress that played Susan, the First Doctor's grandchild. There was even a new song called song for 50! I thought it was amazing. Listen to the prom here. THIS LINK DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.

Candy Castle

In my music lesson at school, we all created a song based on a land that we thought of. My group did a land made entirely of sweets. Even the chocofall (chocolate waterfall). The song's to the tune of Frère Jacques.

The lyrics are:

Candy Castle x2
Made of sweets x2
Choco-choco-chocolate x2
Made of sweets x2

Then (not to the tune of Frère Jacques) I rap:

Candy Castle x2
Made of sweets x2
Chocofall x2
Made of sweets, yeah x2
