Brunel goes horse riding and meets Kirsty's gorgeous cats!

On Friday I took Brunel horse riding and he wanted to jump the jumps, but I didn’t think it was safe so at the end of the lesson he went on my pony instead. After that Brunel went to sit in the hay, it was so warm that he didn’t want to come out of it! Next he went on a tractor and he wanted to drive it home….. but I said absolutely not!

When Brunel went to bed, he met my sister’s teddy bear. At first Brunel was frightened of him, then they made friends.


On Saturday I took Brunel to the cat show at the Caird Hall in Dundee, he really enjoyed that. He liked all of the cats there, but he liked the big white fluffy one the best! Back at home Brunel played with my cats CD and Rosse. We watched a movie together and Brunel thought it was so scary that he had to hide behind the sofa!

On Sunday we had a lazy day and stayed home, we played on the computer and watched the TV. I think Brunel wants to come back to my house soon.

Nessina sees Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Nessina saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Bristol Hippodrome. We sat up high but near the front so we could see the stage really well. My brother got annoyed because the bar was in his way! Nessina wanted to ride the car but she couldn't.

The children got kidnapped by the child catcher when he was disguised as the toy maker. I didn't recognise him either. The king was very greedy because he wanted really good toys each year for his birthday from the toy maker. They were wind up toys although the man and the woman inside were the main characters.

It was scary when the fireworks came out of the stage and went bang! My favourite characters were the two children because they looked really good.Nessina behaved well and enjoyed her crisps during the interval.

Nessina goes to Florida!

At MGM Studios Nessina met her cousin, Nessie! She thought it was weird meeting so far away from home. Nessie was in the water, with a boat, frightening the passengers.
This is Nessina in front of Cinderella's castle. She went inside and saw ballroom and dinning room. She felt like royalty.
Here she is again at Epcot sitting ontop of a plague showing who worked there. Inside the huge ball there is a ride that shows you all different time periods from cavemen to the modern day. Nessina liked the Roman palace best.

This is Nessina ontop of a manatee at Sea World where she went under water in a tunnel and saw lots of different fish and sharks. When she saw the big shark she was quite scared.

This is Nessina when we went to Universal Studios. While she was there she went on lots of rides and had fun watching some 3d films. She saw Spiderman and Terminator which she was a bit scared of.

Nessina had a great time in the heat of Florida as well as having lots of fun. She wished she could go again. So do I!

Brunel enjoys my garden!

Brunel stayed with me from Monday to Friday. I was off school on Friday but my big sister brought him in for me because I knew it was Kirsty’s turn to look after him over the weekend. Miss Hulbert gave me the star badge because I remembered to send him in.

Brunel liked my garden! In the pictures you can see what I mean. First of all, Brunel saw my trampoline and asked me if he could go on it. So, he jumped on and started bouncing and he showed me his forward flip.

Next he wanted to try my see-saw so he sat down on it and started to rock. After that he spotted my goals and wanted to play. He played goalie and I think he could be good! I couldn’t score a goal. In my garden I have lots of trees and without asking Brunel climbed the biggest tree! In the picture he is looking very pleased with himself.

After all that exercise Brunel was hungry and he had an extra big portion of mince pie! What fun we had when Brunel came to stay.

A diary for Brunel

Grant and Brunel’s long weekend together.

Friday night

After school we both played football together and bounced a lot on my trampoline. We were both very tired and went off to bed early.

Saturday

It was a lovely day so my mum and dad decided to have a BBQ. Brunel just loved the steak and chicken and we were so full up we had to take a long nap on our hammock!

Sunday

Brunel visited mum’s stables to see Marouhk our Arab stallion. Brunel wasn't frightened at all, but he didn't like the smell very much. Baxter my cousin’s new puppy visited and they played together until they both fell asleep.

Monday

Brunel came with me to my judo lesson at Mayfield and he watched me practise my Judo moves. Everyone thought he was lovely. Afterwards, we went out for tea and then went home to bed.

Grant

Brunel turns into a Beaver!

Brunel stayed with me for a few days. On Monday night he came to Beavers. We played octopus tig and had fun. Every Tuesday night I play golf with Rory, my brother and his friends. Brunel came along and played with his own mini golf club! We gave Brunel plenty of fruit when he stayed with us. As you can see, he likes apples the best. Brunel sat on my school bag in the morning so he wouldn’t get left at home.

I love Brunel and he loves us!

Brunel stays with Kyle for a week.

Brunel stayed with me before the Easter holidays. We went swimming and afterwards we went out for tea. Brunel came with us. I had a burger but he preferred to have his dog food. Cameron, my little brother really liked Brunel too. Cameron is in Primary 1 and last week he brought home his class-bear Ross. Ross was lucky because it was good weather and we had a bar-be-que!

Do other classes in your school look after bears too?
