Going Hunting


Author:
Hi, my name is Shane. I wrote this story about my first time to go hunting. I am in fifth class. I like writing stories and playing football.

My Hunting Trip

Last Sunday I went hunting down in Cavan. We went down in a van and we had four dogs in the back. There were cows in the first field. They chased us. In the next field there were lots of rabbit holes. I nearly fell into one. It was my first time hunting. In the second field there was a rabbit looking out of his burrow. He ran out into a different burrow. Then we saw a girl with her dogs. They all started to fight so we had to get them back. They kept on going over so we moved on to a different field. There were no rabbits there. So we went back to the van. When we came back to Luke’s house we saw lots of Christmas trees out the back. So we brought the dogs over to see if they could get rabbits. But they didn’t catch any. We decided to go home. It was my first time rabbit hunting and I enjoyed it.

My Unfortunate Frog

My grandad gave me a frog for my birthday. it was an albino frog. My uncle gave it to my grandad and my grandad gave it to me. I had it for a year and it ate turtle food. You get the food in Paddy's Pet Shop. It costs four euros and that's the same place I got my aunty's gold fish in.

I got a tank, that cost me ten euro. I got a few rocks and a little plant and I fed it every two days. I cleaned its tank once a week. I liked it but everyone else hated it! But on Christmas Eve I was cleaning out the tank and I was as happy as Larry because it was going to be Christmas the next day.

All of a sudden the frog jumped down the toilet and it was there for a minute and it swam down the toilet. That was the end of the frog. Then I rang up my grandad and I told him the unfortunate news and he said "Good luck to it!"

Last week the Miss had nine dice with pictures on them. She rolled them and we had to make a story out of them. On my nine dice I got a house, a plane, a flower, a lock, an arrow, an L plate sign, a fish, a happy face and the earth. This is my story.

THE FISH AND THE FORTUNE TELLER

Once upon a time there was a fish. The fish thought he was special so he went to see Happy Face. Happy Face was a fortune teller. She was the best fortune teller on the earth. The fortune teller told the fish that he would save the world some day. So the fish gave her a big huge bunch of flowers.
The fish went to get his pilot licence. The fish just about passed his test so he got a L plate. It was the fishes first day on the job and he had to fly to a place twelve and a half hours away from where he was. He was about three hours through his journey.

He put it on auto-pilot for a few minutes because he had to do something. When he came back he found out he forgotten to fill the plane with petrol. Then he saw a crack in a window down the back of the plane. He went down to the window which was cracked.

He saw the fortune teller thrown stones at the plane. The plane started falling down to the ground. Then the fish got a phone call off the fortune teller. The fortune teller said that she was allergic to the flowers she got off the fish. The fortune teller had a happy face because she thought that the fish was going to die.

The auto-pilot battery died and the plane came crashing down into a house. The fish then ran to the closest door but it was locked. He ran to the next door, it was also locked. He went a window which was big enough to jump. Thats what the fish did and he did it quickly. The fortune teller started chasing the fish throwing stones saying "I will kill you Mr.Fish".

Then the fishes boss came home from work to find her house crashed by a plane with an L plate sign on the back of it. She started crying her eyesout. The fortune teller ended up losing her breath and stopped chasing him and the fish lived happily ever after.
