pumpkin wedges

Sunday evening arrives then and this marks the end of Halloween and my half term. grrr rubbish. Ah well. time moves on.

Friday night was official halloween night and I celebrated it at t halloween party with my brother and others. My costume worked a treat and I was particularly proud of my home made cut-throat razor!

This picture probably doesn't make it look as impressive as i think it is, but you will observe the basis for the razor. A hinged ruler!! tee hee! I used plastic and silver sticky back plastic for the blade. I then selotape wrapped a slice of cleaning sponge round the other end and then covered that in leather effect sticky back plastic.
I then wrapped a leather lace around the middle to attach it to my costume. The finishing touch was blood on the blade. This was acheived with tart red nail varnish!

Costume assembled I headed to party in Hade Edge. Proper party! We played the hat gloves knife and fork chocolate game... followed by the slice the flour mound to without knocking the sweet off game, and finally bobbling for apples!

Having painted my face... this final game made me need to re-apply face paint before a final trip to the local! Always fun when in fancy dress to head to a local! we looked like nutters! :)

Saturday was spent being lazy and doing little bits of school work. In the evening I cooked yet another huge dinner complete with scallops, steak and chocolate fondant. (which i am still yet to perfect!)

Today I have been over to feed the small balck and white whirl wind known as simons dog Phoebe. She appeared a little scared of me, or maybe my peruvian hat, and proceeded to wee all over the floor. Yuk. That cleaned up i took her out for a short walk in the misty rain. The walk was fine... but yet again, I really cannot see the attraction of picking up dog poo in little plastic bags and carrying it around! yuk

Finally, While writing this I have been watching the closing stages of the Sao Paulo grand prix. The deal was that Hamilton had to get 5th or better to win the world championship[. I never watch F1 by the way, but felt this was a good background noise for writing. Anyway, I have spent the last 10 minutes feeling very emotional as on the last lap, hamilton dropped to 6th. The lap went on. Massa (rival for world championship) streaked across the finish line and the ferarri team began to celebrate... Massa was world champion!.... Suddenly, camera moved to penultimate corner, and, OH MY GOD!... Hamilton was battling with Glock for 5th place!. Glock went wide. Hamilton snuck through on the inside corner! he was in 5th!! one corner to go. If he held on he would get world championship! Massa's team were all jumping for Joy when suddenly they stopped. Hamilton had crossed the line. But what position was he?! FIFTH! LEWIS HAMILTON WINS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!

I would like to state that i never get this excited, but hamilton winning made me get out of the chair and scream with excitement! Jesus what a geek i am!

ANyway, time to prepare for school tmrw. Really can't be bothered, only 7 weeks to christmas break up... sure it'll fly!

Hmm maybe!

INTIxx
