Thursday: The challenge and the chickens

Me, Alex Burns (on the left), and Will Hewitt (on the right) after coming 2nd 3rd and 1st respectively when we did our mile run. Was well good, I used the picture on the end of my English homework! Although I have lost that PE shirt, at home as well?!

The briefing. One of the only times I've seen the whole of our year shut up at once at just one word from an adult! Background props: Shipman's is getting his head cut in half in the background by the orange tape, Dom is at the front of the closest line, and BZ is the one in the black t-shirt and grey trousers.

The Machine, Ollie Carrington. Got 4:30 on the mile run!

Getting off our tour bus

At the start of the mile run. Notice how far the porker in brown is behind already! 

The gym challenge was 10 medicine ball "thrusts", 20 running-on-the-spots, 10 half situps, and 20 step-ups. And then all of them back again.  Easy, but time was the object and I got 1:30 or 1:39, and the best was something better than that.

Sanger doing the medicine ball press part of the challenge. And dying at it!

This was the sight put of our kitchen window a few minutes after returning home!

The scaffolding is for the work Niall's dad and his gang of minions are doing on our roof. 

We followed them all the way round from the front garden into the back

Connor's camera is better than mine... and its a phone as well!

"I wanna touch it!"

The chicken version of the Godfather!
