the greatest team in the world - the ALL BLACKS - Mr Henry announced his first team of the year to take on the understrength French team in Auckland this Saturday - you may as well know i am a fanatical AB supporter.

kittykat - i had no interest in rugby either until i was in my twenties.

get a life mantos ;>) rugby is mans sport - no timeouts or pads or ad breaks... oh, i must admit, the black ferns are pretty darn impressive too, and they are men.

good on you, room5ian!

Kitty Kat said...

Mr WOody there should be a rule that we can only leave relivent or informational posts.

Kitty Kat said...

oh...anyway I'm more of netballer.
Everyone should try out a group and an induvidual sport.
They really help you to concentrate and I find they help me with my work.

Anthony said...

But with NFL they actually add a little bit of strategy into the mix. In rugby you can't do head highs or anything but you can in NFL so it is more of a "man's sport" then rugby will ever be.

Hi Room5...

I just wanted to say thank you to you all for being so wonderful for myself and to Emma over the past term and a half! You are all marvellous students and I really hope that you continue with le francais and have learned AND enjoyed some of the content we have covered!

Merci a tous..

In relation to the posting I am commenting on... This is probably going to be social suicide BUT... I am not an AB's fan. My loyalties lie across the ditch and they have for the past 10 years. I just wanna wannabe a walla wallaby!! (I'm going to get into SO much trouble...)

Kitty Kat said...

thankyou emjay!!!!!

emjay said...

Pas de probleme! :o)

IM A ROOM5IAN said...

IM A ROOM5IAN said...

p.s. does any one know how to play petonque (pitonk) ?

Miss Candy said...

she waited for the intriging moment, waiting for it to flow, the mountain which will live, the mountain that will stay she blessed her heart on the first day,
the day was warm and calm the birds sang in the breeze, the birds sang--sang a lovely lalaby in the lovely barky trees, her heart was stolen a heart so rare, she left the place forever--the place that she despairs.

hey everyone please edit that , its a poem if you couldnt tell and no it wasnt writin by my younger brother because thats what you'ld have thought because its so bad!!!!!!!
but please also tell me if its good enough to go on my blog.(is it good at all?)

cheers mrwoody and the rest of the people on blogger

Kelsey said...

Rugby is all right.

Miss Candy said...

it was a 30sec poem by the way almost half the reason why its bad!!!!

SpUdArOoNy said...

I think i am the 30th comment.. or maybe not!
but i LOOOVEE rugby! i get up at three to watch the games!!
GO ALL BLACKS!! We had better win!!!!

Miss Candy said...

IM A ROOM5IAN said...

she waited for the intriging moment, (waiting for it to flow, the mountain which will live, the mountain...) (that will stay she blessed her heart on the first day),
the day was warm and calm the birds sang in the breeze, (the birds sang-)sang a lovely lalaby in the (lovely) barky trees, her heart was stolen(,) a (heart so rare), she left the place forever--the place that she despairs.

the bits in brackets (are lots) need to be edited .
1st lot- what has the moment got to do with the mountain?
2nd lot- dosnt make sence
3rd lot- you dont need this bit
4th lot- already used this word
5th lot- needs a comma
6th lot- 'a heart so rare' ?
- tenses
after some editing this will definately be worth putting on your blog, i hope this all helps!

Kitty Kat said...

Hmmm its a good poem!
you seem to write it and then click the publish button though.
There is a single button for spell check and you could read it WORD BY WORD.
YOU are the one who needs to do most of the editing because its your writing!
Your senteses arn't quite in the right places...watch that as you do it in lots of places.
Try and get your current of intreging words to flow and create an interesting rythem rather than have it rushing, and crashing over rocks (its kindof like listening to a song on fast foward)
Other than that its brillant writing!
LET IT SHINE!
