Day 15
~ Dear Diary --:
To-day I
went home with Kenneth Coffey. After school we went to the Hi B Hotel for dinner and we played snooker. The chips and chicken nuggets were lovely. We stayed for a while then we went to Kenneth's house.
Every one there loved me. The games we played were fun. Then Kenneth’s dog got me.  I thought this was the end of my life. He dragged me off the sofa by the leg, tossed me in the air and dragged me outside. He was just about to put me down a hole, when Kenneth came out and picked me up and brought me in. I had a lucky escape. He gave out to his dog and told him that I was a visitor and that I   was not to be treated like that. We went in and watched TV. I asked Ken to mind me, as I was afraid his dog would get me again. The Simpson's were cool and we watched Futureama on TV.

And then we had a game of WF (wrestling game). I won the WF wrestling match. I was the rock and Kenneth was "Stonecold" Steve Austin. I nearly broke a window, when I did a sky jump. At 10.00 we went to bed. I woke up at 2 o’clock in the morning, looking for a glass of water. Kenneth was fast asleep. I gave him a dig put he still stayed asleep. So I went and woke his mother but she put me back to bed.  I was really thirsty so I sneaked out of bed, went down stairs and got a glass of 7up. I was looking for the chocolate biscuits, but Kenneth must have hid them, because I couldn’t find them. 

The next morning I went for a shave and a shower. I felt great after that. We ate breakfast and it was lovely. I had a boiled egg and toast for breakfast. We then headed for school. Ken's Mum made us lunch. She made Ken and me ham sandwiches. I told her I did not like ham. I asked for a banana sandwich. Ken's Mam said she had no bananas. I then told her it was okay. We then had a small row. Ken's mum told me to get my school bag and go to school. We ran to the bus stop up the road, as we were late. We picked the bus up outside 'Riverstown Stores'. We met some older boys and girls on the bus. We were in school in ten minutes. I was telling everyone about my adventures in Tramore. The girls wanted to ask one of my friends to come to their school next year. At 9.00 we got off the bus and headed into school for another days adventures. Who's house would I be in tonight, I wondered.
