What a week!

Well, where do I beginning?
First of all, what a week last week was. Live8 last Saturday was awesome. Plymouth was one of the places which had a big screen showing it in the city centre, which was of course the place to be watching it. When Robbie came on, it was just incredible. Fi and me were dancing around like a pair of mad things and the camera crew came round and videoed us!
On Tuesday and Wednesday I was lucky enough to go on two school trips. Tuesday’s was to Looe in the pouring rain with the Infants. The rain did not stop us eating our ice creams though!
On Wednesday I went to Wembury beach with the Year 3’s, on this occasion the weather was better and we actually saw some sunshine. Both of them were brilliant and we had a fantastic time.
I then got home and found out that London had won the Olympics in 2012, and I was absolutely ecstatic. I am definitely going to try and go up to watch some of it. One of my mates did remind me and we’ll be 30 by then! (as she’s 3 days younger then me we are the same age)
Then came Thursday morning. I was watching the news, watching in horror as the events unfolded. My thoughts and prayers are with all those affected. One of my mates was on one of the trains which blew up. Fortunately she is ok, but is still wary of using the tube, and is having nightmares about it.
On Sunday I was watching the British Grand Prix, and spent most of the day thinking about what I would have been doing, if I had been there, which for the last 4 years I have been. It was totally and utterly weird not being there. I even saw the huge Scottish flag that has been there the last 3 yrs in the same place as it was last year and the year before.
I also saw the drivers during the minute’s silence before the race, not being well, silent. They were talking to each other, laughing etc, and I was thinking, “how rude is that, if they were going to do that they would have been better not doing it all”.
The race itself was good though.
Ah well, we will have to see what the next few weeks bring.
