Weekend

7-8 March

Jeroen:

Saterday

We had breakfast at 9:00. And again as always beans, scrambled eggs and sausages. At half past eleven wichert made himself ready for another hockeymatch. I didn't play, because the fourth team had a rest for this weekend. I was going to film wichert when he was hockeying. But when I came to the field, the team asked me to keep for their team, because the keeper of their team didn't turn up. So I keeped the match for the third team. Mr Balls was very proud of me that I keeped for this team, because he is the coach of the third team. The sad thing was we lost 2-1, while our team was better. Wichert scored our goal. I was so hungry after the match, that we had lunch. This was our last hockey match here, because the next weekends we will go to London.
In the evening we watched a movie.

Sunday

This morning I did something very strange. I got awake at a time I thought 10:00. I woke up Wichert and we went to breakfast. When we were in the dining room we saw nobody, that was strange. Wichert looked on his watch and I saw his face changing. I looked on my watch and I saw it was 8:00, two hours to early. I was so astonished, in how I could mistake myself in time. This was so strange. We tried to sleep until brunch at 10:00. This day was the day that we were going to participate th sunday trip. The sunday trip was organized by Mr Clapp. We were going to fish. Mr Clapp drove us in the minibus to the trout farm. Driving to the farm we saw the beautiful landscape of England. It is so different from holland. You have those neverending hills and small roads between and over them. And sometimes these nice cosy typical english houses. We really liked this landscape. After 30 minutes we arrived at the lovely trout farm. There everybody got a fishing-rod. This was my first time I ever fished, but it was fun. I caugth one fish and I pulled it out of the water. Then I had to kill the fish by hitting it with a wooden stick. You really had to hit the fish a load of times until the fish was dead. Wichert also caught a fish. And also killed some fish.

We really enjoyed the fishing. When we drove back we went past a supermarket, where we could by some food. At the supermarket we bought 38 liitle bags of crisps. Including my favorite: salt and vinegar. Then we went back to school. Back at school we had to take the guts out of the fish. I fortunately didn't have to do it, because it was disgusting. It also stank. At 6:00 pm we had tea and we ate our trout we had caught that day. Although I have seen them being cut open, the trout tasted really nice. This was the first time I ate fish here.
