> It's been a while since we posted on here, things have been really busy at school what with project work and rehearsals for the play: Chris has really got into the play and knew all his lines after only the first read through (he knows everyone else's as well and is not above letting them know with odd prompts - I told him he'd make himself unpopular if he's not careful !). He has this sickening ability to remember stuff by reading it just once ....... wish I did.

> Today has been windy and now wet this afternoon, so of course we were due to play rugby. The games teacher suggested we go for a cross country run instead as it was too windy to have a decent game, but we all said we'd give it a go rather than go running (boring). We were soaked through within ten minutes of getting on the pitch and everyone was enjoying sliding around and tackling the others into the mud so it all turned out well.

> Chris and me were chosen for opposite teams, so Chris had to change into his white rugby shirt whilst I stayed in my dark blue, which looks great with blue shorts when you get really wet, whereas the white shirts look great when totally muddy. It was fun tackling Chris each time he got the ball and getting him muddier and muddier each time. By the end of the game we were all very muddy indeed and the rain was still pouring so everyone's kit was sticking to them - lovely !!

> Despite the fun of getting soaked and muddy we were all looking forward to a hot shower but when we got back to the changing rooms we were told that the showers were not working for some unknown reason. It was a case of going home as we were or hosing each other down outside with cold water and making do. We decided we would rather go home and so pulled on tracksuits over our muddy wet kit and drove home with a couple of plastic bags on the seats, which was fine.

> Tomorrow I am flying out to Berlin with Chris and his parents for the weekend, his dad has a company do with a formal dinner in the evening, so we will do some sightseeing during the day and amuse ourselves in the evening somehow, not sure what as yet. I've never been to Berlin so should be interesting.
