Sunday - 2nd day!

Hi everybody! Kirsty again, as everybody else is too tired to write!

Had a great 2nd day! After breakfast we set off for a day in "North Shields", only for us to arrive there and to realise that it wasn't where we planned to be and needed to be on the other side of the River in South Shields! I take the blame!!!! So anyway we finally arrived in South Shields, where we spent the day playing cricket and playing in the park! Some of them also went on the boating lake, whilst others went for a trip on the miniature railway (Guess which train geek went on the train??!). We then went to the fairground, and whilst some of us more exciting people went on the rides, the grandad's of the Company (erm... Cobs, Tom Clayton and Stephen) went for a sit down and a little rest!!

Back to the centre for games before an evening at the Speedway! We went to see the local derby of Newcastle Diamonds vs Redcar Bears! We got a special tour and explanation about how the bike's work, before watching 15 heats of racing! After several accidents and nail biting races, Newcastle Diamonds were successful, winning 61-29! After the race, several of the racers were kind enough to sign autographs and talk to the lads.

So that was the 2nd day! We've been very fortunate to have a brilliant day's weather, with bright sunshine all day! But all this nice weather and fresh air has made me shattered, so off to bed now! Ryan's gonna chat to you all tomorrow and fill you in on all of the day's actions!

See you all later!
