My birthday - By Franco, aged .... 5 and 1 day

We went to a really nice place. 



next to the place where princesses and people who are on telly go to



Adrian said that many years ago before the Germans came to throw bombs from planes, it was a place where people got money from, and also a place selling big cars, like the one the queen drives.

They didn't have any cars for me to play with but they gave me some nice sarnies and sweets



and some juice that made my nose go all funny with bubbles.



Then we took the tube to a big station where there were so many people and big, long trains.
Near the station there were trees with lights





it all looked very pretty. It was like being Cinderella without the evil witch.

The theatre was pretty like the little cakes that were now in my tummy.



Inside the theatre, I took a photo



but a nasty, old man scolded me and said that I was naughty. I asked "Why?" and he said "'Cause it's the rules"...
I wanted to cry and shout that it was my birthday but he was too nasty.

But I didn't cry. I laughed so much that my belly was achy and everyone was laughing so much that the theatre was shaking.
The nice lady from the telly was very funny too but didn't say anything about my birthday



but I forgive her because she was nice and made me laugh.

When we arrived home, I had pressies to open and Adrian made me a yummy cake with chocolate and jam and flowers but without the bees





And the candles were pretty and so many it looked like a forest of flames, and I made a wish fast



because I wanted to eat a big slice. It was so yummy.

And that was my birthday.
