… I was so cross that … by Tom A

Yesterday, I thought that I could leave my dumb little brother (who is 7 years old) alone for 5 minutes while I go to get milk but, when I got home, there was toilet paper all over the house! It was such a mess! I was so cross that I locked him in the dog cage for 5 minutes. I know that that sounds mean, but he deserved it, he always does! When my parents got home, I told them, and they grounded him for a month. Take that Timmy! I hope he doesn't find out what I've written about him.

We were batting - I hit the ball and it was an amazing shot so I ran as fast as I could all the way to second base but unfortunately the third base was stumped, “Why is rounders so hard?” I thought. Sam hit the ball - I ran, but fourth base was stumped. Sam just kept running and running and he ran me out. I was so cross that I chucked my bat across the pitch.

“I scored 5.5 rounder just to be ran out." I screamed.

Sam was busy focusing whilst the other team were whispering, “Ha, this is easy."

My friend (Billy) and I went to a new skatepark to see if it was any good. We arrived at the skatepark - it was huge! When we got inside, we were amazed and excited. Then some kid asked Billy if he wanted to play with him and he did. I was left on my own. I was so cross that I went to the kid-bar at the side of the skatepark.

After 20 minutes, Billy asked me if I wanted to play with him and his new friend. I told him yes and we all played for the rest of the day.

… I was so cross that … by Harley

Today I was so cross that I smacked my older brother in the face and told nobody about it.

Walking up towards my older brother, I asked him, “Do you want to play a match of pool/snooker with me?”

He replied with, “No, you are really annoying!”

I was really cross at that point, so I decided to get my fist out and smacked him right in the face. I was now in shock because that was only the second time I had ever beat my brother up and on the other hand I only used one move with my fist.

As I entered the horrible house, I saw my sister looking like she was hiding. “What are you doing here? Leave me alone - just go away!” I shouted at my sister. She looked at me in a weird way and I was so cross that she had followed me all the way to here. I felt so angry at that moment that I froze in anger. In my head I counted to ten and forgot about that and just carried on walking into the house. When I walked inside, I saw designs on the walls and mirrors all over.

… I was so cross that … by Jessica

It was Monday morning, the worst day of the week, because I have PE with Mr Run - I HATE him-. As I was getting ready for the dreaded day ahead, I couldn’t find my school shirt. I looked under my bed, in my draws and even my swimming bag. Of course it wasn’t there so I had to go down stairs and ask mum. “Mum where’s my...”

I paused for a second and there was my school shirt, not white but PINK! I was so cross that I screamed, “WHY IS MY SHIRT PINK!”

What were we going to do?

… I was so cross that … by Mason

So today was one of my worst because a kid ate my sandwich, I was so cross that I whacked him around the face with a spoon. Later that day, the kid's friends came with spoons and tried hitting me with them, but I got out of it and ran away. The kids tried so hard to find me, but they didn’t. After school, I went back to mine and hid because the boys followed me home. I got a spoon and a fork and went outside. I poked one and he ran off. Then the others ran off...

It was only a few days ago when my best friend and I had fallen out with each other, she pushed me I was so cross that I did it back. After that, I felt so bad I apologized straight away. Unfortunately, she didn’t want to make up – my Mum thought that I should say sorry by taking her out for tea but I didn’t think that was a great idea. For hours and hours, I was sat thinking about what to do when I had the perfect idea, I invited her to a sleepover because she had always loved them.

… I was so cross that … by Kaitlin

My little brother (Oliver) is so annoying that some days I wish I could kill him and today might just be the day. He has been following me around, messing up my room after I had just cleaned it. Worst of all he goes off crying to mum saying I have injured him; he does not know what is coming his way.

It was the second day and he is still making me mad. By the end of the second day I was so cross that I threw him in the fish pond. And he never annoyed me from that day!

Dear diary

I was so cross that I almost lost my mind, that rotten little sister of mine was recording our journey to Japan. That was ok if she didn’t break my beautiful camera after!

Anyway, I had to forgive her, I just wish I could get a new one. Maybe if I ask, they will let me? Tomorrow, that’s when I will ask, and we will see. Hopefully, they would get it for my birthday for it is not that far away. I will write straight into this diary when I know if I will be getting it.

My grading was here, going for brown belt! I knew it was going to be extremely hard but the only thing I can do is my best.

Nervously, I walked in with my sister, [who was going for purple belt black stripe] and warmed up cautiously, making sure I didn’t hurt anything - or anyone!

Then, it was our turn. We started to do exercises and punches which were all going great. But then, something went wrong. Unfortunately, we got up to combinations - on the pads - and I did it wrong. I was so cross that I nearly walked out.

… I was so cross that … by Michael

The other night, I got really mad. I got cross. I was so cross that I angrily threw my bedsheets off my bed because my mum had taken away my PS4 Controllers because we were going somewhere, I didn’t want to go to, but I had to anyway. All I did to try and get me back to my own self was find the PS4 Controllers. In my mind it seemed to be the only way. I searched curiously through my mum’s things where all the electronics were hidden and in the end, I found them bringing me back to happiness.

… I was so cross that … by Faith P

    It was Friday, now I was ready for the weekend, I had so much planned I couldn’t think straight. My mum opened my bag and took out my homework book!

“Oh no!” I said.

Then she took out a sheet of maths homework, “Oh no!” I said again.

“You will also have the 100-word challenge,” my mum said.

I go to school all week and have to do more work at home, I was so cross that I had work to do!

Mum made a hot chocolate; I started and soon finished my homework. The weekend had now started.

… I was so cross that … by Roxanne

I was reading one of my favourite books, when my little-brother (who is very annoying) shouted me. I went to his room to ask him what he wanted when he just started giggling and said: “What do you mean? I never called you.”

I trotted back to my room and carried on reading. I again, heard my brother shout my name. I didn’t listen to him – because I knew he was playing a prank – when he repeatedly screamed my name (just to make me mad!) I was so cross that I just put my earphones in and ignored him.

… I was so cross that … by Joshua D

When I was taking a stroll through the beautiful streets of Skegness, I spotted a massive sheet of ghost-white paper. The paper was covered in Chinese writing (I didn’t understand all of it). Luckily, at the wonderful school that I go to, they teach me how to read Chinese words. The writing seemed to be familiar, it was like the letter I had been sent be my friend, Chow. All of a sudden, the powerful wind swept the sheet out of my ice-cold hands. I was so cross that I chucked my majestic glasses with such force they snapped in half.

The Secret Door by Zuzanna

As I walked in the room, I felt a strange feeling in my stomach. I felt like I was being hypnotised or something. My heart pounded as if it was about to fall out of me. I looked around carefully until I saw a strange opening in a bookshelf it looked like the bookshelf had a secret door. I walked towards it very slowly like I was a very secretive spy. As I touched it with my sweaty palm full of nerves, a random door came out of nowhere. I looked inside the room and the room was unbelievable what I...

The Theatre by Kaitlin

It was in the 1900’s and a new, amazing theatre had just been built. It had everything a theatre needs; brilliant shows, chocolate, sweets\candy. It was so good! They had shows for children and adults all year.

Hopelessly, a gorgeous glass candelilla stared down at the people passing beneath. To the right of the entrance there was an awesome candy bar. It had every candy you could think of; lollypops, chocolate, hokey pokeys (ice cream) and lots more goodies. Detailed stairs led up towards the unbelievable room were the magic happens! Who knows what magic will happen in there next?

The Mansion by Roxanne

“Hello?” echoed a young-boy’s squeaky voice throughout the abandoned walls of the mansion. “Is anybody in here?” he asked again.

He received no answer and decided to look around for his missing ball (that had smashed through the house’s misty windows). He found a candy stall – but was disappointed when he found out it was empty...

The chequered floor was like an illusion to him, as if each pattern got bigger... and bigger...

Finally, he had found his ball! He dashed out of the mansion and was thankful for leaving the creepy, torn state that it was in.

The Museum by Madi

Museums are normal, right? They had: cool objects, pictures, information, normal things. Well, this was no ordinary museum... It seemed to be haunted!

This is my story:

Whistling birds were out, the sun was shining and myself, and my friend [Jackie] were on our mountain bikes, zooming through the forest. It was at that very moment - that still creeps us out to this day - that a shock made Jackie nearly faint. [She looked terrified!] I don’t really want to describe it to you but one thing, don’t go inside it; you may just shock yourself and pass out!

What is this place? by Lilly-Ella

“What is this place?" Ally said as she curiously walked around the huge room with a blank expression on her face.

“Maybe it was a cinema because of the sweet bar,” Janita questioned - looking around the weird place, “Cinemas always have one of them," she added.

“Perhaps it was dance studio because of the style of the place?” Oliver said, “Or, maybe it is where someone lived?”

“Yes!” Ally and Janita both shouted at exactly the same time.

“That explains all of the light that are on," Janita said happily.

“It explains the noises as well,” Ally stated.

The Theatre by Faith

After tying my lace, I rushed to catch up to the rest of the group, I pushed open a heavy door, when all of a sudden, I realised I had opened the wrong one! The room I entered was like I had stepped back in time, it must have been the original part of the theatre, it had an old candy bar, a magnificent grand staircase, huge arched windows and a massive chandelier. As I stood admiring, imagining what it would have been like the door opened….

“There you are, come on in the show’s about to start” my teacher said.

The abandoned museum by Joshua

When I was taking a stroll through the pitch-black streets (on a casual Friday night) something caught my humongous eye. It was a mossy, abandoned museum in the city’s park, I had never seen it before. I decided to explore. When I arrived at the ancient door, I tried the handle, it was locked. I kicked the door with such force it sprung open. Once inside, I spotted the enormous, silky cobwebs hanging from the unstable ceiling. There was broken stained-glass littering the floor which meant I had to watch my step, I had never seen anything like it.

I sat and looked at the letter surprised that I'm like Harry Potter. 

I signed the letter then went.

The Cinema by Jessica

After a busy day working long hours in the old, brick walled cinema I stood at the bottom of the chocolate stairs and stared at the dusty glass chandelier. All I could think of was getting home into my pyjamas and laying in my bed watching tv with a hot chocolate. I could smell the delicious scent of the candy bar, as I stood gormlessly staring at the chandelier. As I sighed with relief that my shift was over for the night, I got my bag, switched off all the lights, locked the door and started to walk home.

The Museum by Harley

Waking up in a dark museum, I heard noises coming from on top of the roof which sounded like things I’d never heard before. I looked up as slow as a slug and saw some sort of creature moving through the cracks of the wooden roof. The noises were getting deeper sounding by every second and closer by every minute. My heart was beating as fast as anything now and I was extremely scared. Suddenly, something tapped me on the back with its claws and I fainted instantly.

I woke up that same day knowing that it was a dog.

The abandoned school by Bradley

The stair case of beige and orange, stood vertically, leading to what looked like a library (on the next floor).

The home of the staircase was a badly treated, abandoned school. This school was once a home for hundreds of joyful pupils. Until this happened...

Bang! A fire had started in the cafeteria and was rapidly spreading across the school! This incident took place on a regular day of school for the children. Teachers were crying for help - all doors were locked due to the earlier lockdown practice - and children of old and young struggled to escape, hopefully not burning themselves...

New Job by Tom A

I got a new job last week in a candy bar at a train station. It was a very old train station; 50 years old. As soon as I began to work there, I could tell that something just wasn't right. There were rumours that the original owner (who died in 1979) haunts the corridors. But they're just rumours, right? It wasn't until this 7-year-old girl bought some candy last week, that I thought the rumours were true. She disappeared down the corridor and out of sight. Suddenly, I heard her scream. And then, I saw the figure....

One day I sat on my bed alone. I felt a weird feeling like I was trying to find something. No, that’s not right like my soul was trying to find something... I don’t know. I went out to find this thing, but it just led me outside on to my lawn. I dug up a box it was empty. What a surprise all that work for nothing. But then I saw an opening in the box, so I pulled it and there was a map inside of it. It looked like it led to some temple or volcano!

…empty. What a surprise!…, Madi

The clock struck... “Ugghhh!” sighed Isabel; time to do the boring laundry. Isabel hated doing the laundry. What about all of the other things she could have done instead of waiting for the clothes to be ready. Things like: going to a friend’s; bike outside; go for a walk down to the shop. Well, anyway... Isabel strolled up, [as slow as a slimy slug] and looked inside the washing machine; she looked as though she had just knocked herself out! “It’s empty. What a surprise!” Her stupid mum played a trick on her and made her wait for nothing. “Ahhhhh!”

When I was outside of my beautiful house, which was new, checking out my dull garage filled with boxes. After that, I started to check out the massive boxes, but they were empty. What a surprise! I thought, I wondered why they were so enormous. Suddenly, I heard a massive thud, so I sprinted over - it was a sly fox. Quickly, I shut the garage door but just as it was about to touch the solid ground the fox skidded under; I was annoyed. Minutes passed, I looked in the others but again it was empty there was just dust and cobwebs.

“Alright, surrender the gold, Hook!” shouted Peter Pan – from beyond the sky’s shaded grey clouds.

“I’ll never give it to a young, and silly boy like you!” yapped Captain Hook, whilst his servant (Smee) looked through his rusted telescope to spot out Peter’s next move. Hook was very stubborn (and absolutely HATED Pan).

Hook rushed to his hammock and laid out the little treasure box he had stolen from Peter. He opened it roughly, with a fierce force, to find it... empty. What a surprise!

He yelled in anger “I’ll get you Pan!” .... whilst hearing him laughing in the distance.

My dog Toby has been acting a little different for a while now, I started to think he was getting lonely or even ill. Every time I went in the kitchen he runs and hides, I was so suspicious, I needed to get to the bottom of this.

I went to the kitchen, the door of the cupboard, where his treats were kept away from him, was slightly open. I opened the cupboard door, a packet fell out, empty! What a surprise, Toby had eaten them all. I looked over at him, he ran and laid on his bed. No more treats.

It was Christmas Eve, and two siblings had just fallen out with each other. Why? You may ask, because they both wanted to listen to the same cd in their own room. Unfortunately, they only owned one CD player.

The next day, they had still not made up, besides that they were both sat downstairs next to the tree opening presents, when Lola began opening her present from her sister. She realised it was... empty. "What a surprise," Lola said miserably. “That was the wrong box,” Lola's sister said as she gave Lola a big hug. They had made up!

Drip, drop. Drip, drop. The rain spat from the dull, grey sky. The house was empty. What a surprise! They’d all left to go to a sunnier country and left me here. Why me? I am not that bad. Drip, drop. Drip, drop. The rain wasn’t stopping, it just got heavier. Why me? I thought to myself again. How could they just leave me here; I can’t drive, I can hardly cook, and so on. Maybe I am just so useless they couldn’t be bothered to take me. What am I supposed to do now? I am just so unlucky.

…empty. What a surprise!…, Kaitlin

I hate it when mum is ill. She thinks I'm a slave. All she ever tells me to do is make her a coffee or tea and bring the biscuits. Today I had had enough. I was going to prank her.  I went upstairs to see if mum wanted to have a tea or coffee. She wanted a caramel coffee. Quickly, I rushed down the stairs and made it. I grabbed the drink and the biscuit tin and went back up. She took a sip, it had salt in. Rapidly she opened the biscuit tin. It was empty. What a surprise!         

…empty. What a surprise!…, Jessica

The room was completely empty. What a surprise! Not a sound broke though the silence. Everything had gone, no chairs, no photos, no toys not even a curtain at the window, just a lonely spider crawling down the wall. Something was very wrong about this room, it felt cold and misty. As I walked slowly into the room, I could smell the rust from the cold radiator which had been leaking over the past year. A cold shiver ran through my spine as I took a deep breath of the rusty air. “BANG!” the door slammed shut...

Who was that???

…empty. What a surprise!…, Anissa

On a miserable, cold day, a girl called Faith was playing outside in her garden. A friend called Lilly came over to play with her. They decided to play in Faith’s sandpit, but it looked different - really empty. What a surprise! All of her family came over and shouted, “Surprise!” She felt so surprised and really happy. Her family hid the toys on purpose just to make her feel different. They made a surprise into a party with all her family and some friends. The cake, which they were eating, tasted really delicious and creamy. This was an amazing day.

…empty. What a surprise!… by Tom

Last week, a strange parcel arrived on my doorstep. I was anxious to open it since it wasn't the postman who delivered it. I knew that because it was Sunday and the postman doesn't deliver on a Sunday. I opened it reluctantly then said, “Oh! It's empty. What a surprise!” Then I noticed a dent in the bottom of the box and a note that said, 'Step inside'. So, I did what it said, and I fell into a hidden room under the house. I honestly can't remember anything else that happened. All I remember is that it wasn't fun....

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Tom

Me and my best friend, Bob, were walking down Red Street when we found a ladder that led down to the sewer. Bob decided that it was a good idea to go down and have a look. That was the last terrible idea he ever had. I refused to go down there so he called me a chicken. I just rolled my eyes and sat down on the pavement. "Hey, there's lots of coins down here!" He exclaimed excitedly. But, as soon as he stepped down on the ground, he began sinking, until he completely disappeared. It was so scary!

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by George

Strolling along the red pavement, I spotted a huge ladder. The ladder didn’t seem normal, it was gold with a zig zag pattern and seemed to go on for ever.  I was so intrigued that I decided to tip-toe over to it and climb right to the top. Eventually, I reached a halt, a huge platform stood before me. I leaped onto it and suddenly began sinking. Seconds later, I found myself at the bottom of the ladder. There was a bag of coins on the ladder which I carried in my bag. I found out that they were extremely valuable.

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Lilly-Ella

As the fiery red sun was setting and I started to see the crescent moon, I wanted to get a better view of what was in the fountain... I jumped in. I could see coins on the mossy floor they looked rusted and old; one-pence and two-pence coins were all that were there. I started sinking - I had never learnt how to swim.

“Help!” I screamed no longer seeing the pavement or ladder that was leading up to the roof of a house. 

 “Help” I screamed again but no one came. 

What was I going to do? 

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Joshua D

On a frosty winter's day, I was in my delightful house eating my boiling, silky porridge until I heard a thud.... The thud was like an elephant crashing down on the rubbly and uneven pavement. I swiftly ran outside (I was melancholy) suddenly humongous sinking holes started to appear sucking up anything in their paths.

Minutes later, it could suck up a ruby-red fire truck with a 15-metre ladder on top. I had my heart in my mouth, my coins in my pocket started to get pulled to the ground and a minute later I was on it...

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Roxanne

I opened my dull eyes to a new boring day, whilst awaking my body to get changed for work. I took my red ladder – which cost me ten silver coins – and started my journey. On my travels to my work place, I spotted a construction site. I wondered what it was there for - since I have never seen any problems with the area. Leaning closer, I saw newly planted cement (sinking) into the pavement, that’s when I realized, they were building a new block of houses! Anyway, I carried along and headed straight to my work. 

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Fatima

One lonely old man. Sitting on the cold, wet pavement. No food to eat, his appetite was growing. There was nothing he could do. People walked past and threw a few bronze coins, they thought that when they give only a little amount of coins it won’t really help but the person on the floor feels great. Soon he will have enough shiny brown coins. It was like a ladder to a place he had always dreamed of. Many people feel bad, like the group of people that walked past, their hearts were sinking into a red swirl of misery.

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Faith P

As my friend and I were talking, sat on a red blanket in the back garden, my dad was trying to stop his ladder sinking into the grass so he could clean the windows. After a while we heard something drop near us and we both looked round to see what it could be, then it happened again and again but this time it was louder as it fell onto the pavement next to us. We then realised dad had a hole in his pocket and every time he moved up the ladder, coins were falling out of his pocket.

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Mason

People say that they know a guy who collects coins and if you find all four of the power coins you are rich. Well I found them all!

 I found one on the pavement and it was red. The next one was on a roof, so I had to get a ladder to reach it. The next one was sinking in cement, so I had a cemented arm. The last one was in a gambling place, so I had to win it, but it was too easy.

So, now I'm rich - I can buy anything I want like buildings or cars.

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Kaitlin

It was an ordinary day and it was very sunny too. I went up town. I wore my favourite red shirt and blue jeans. Off I went. I saw an ice-cream shop so obviously, I had one. While I was walking over, I found a pile of coins on the ground just lying there. I picked them up. I had the best ice-cream ever (well in my opinion). I walked over to chairs. I saw that a girl had dropped hers, it was sinking into the pavement. I went home. Mum wanted me to go up the ladder and “whoops!!!!!!!” 

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Jessica

As I laid in my bed, I could hear my aggravating mum shouting me to get up. I just ignored her as usual. I couldn’t stop thinking about the dream I had on Saturday night, it was rather peculiar. It included me wearing a red dress trying to walk down the pavement but all I was doing was sinking. I soon realised my pockets were full of coins. Ahead, I could see a ladder, I knew I had to get to it to climb out. I reached the ladder, that’s when I heard mum shouting me to get up!

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Anissa

In a large boat, a boy called William, was on the sea looking for some treasure. He started jumping with happiness and suddenly his precious coins fell out of his pocket. He didn’t realise it until they made a big splash in the sea and started sinking down to the bottom. On the top of the boat, was a big red ladder just in case anything bad happened. William took it out and looked down for his golden coins. When he got to the bottom, he thought that the sand was a long pavement. He picked his coins up and headed home.

RED LADDER SINKING COINS PAVEMENT by Harley

Today was the day when a red ladder was sinking in the pavement because of the golden coins. 

Getting up out of my bed I travelled down Lumley Road to see what the golden coins had destroyed. Looking around for disaster, nothing unusual was to be seen by me and all the nearby people. In the distance I spotted a red ladder slowly sinking into the pavement. I ran over to see what was happening (it was very unusual). The ladder was 4m deep into the ground and had seconds before it would disappear. The ladder was now gone forever...

…the vinegar was too sharp…, Faith

As we began to pack to go out for a picnic, I was trying to decide what crisps to take, chicken or prawn cocktail flavour. While I was stood deciding, my brother picked out salt and vinegar.

When we got to our destination, we laid out a blanket and set out the food, after finishing my sandwiches I started to eat the chicken flavour crisps. My brother began to shake his head, “Try one of these,” he said.

As I tried one, I quickly had to get a drink as the vinegar was too sharp and stung my lips instantly.

…the vinegar was too sharp… by Lilly-Ella

Dear Diary,

 Last night I had fish and chips for tea! They were the worst fish and chips that I have ever eaten because of one thing... the vinegar was too sharp, it was so strong I could hardly even eat any of the chips. The thing that annoys me most is that I didn’t ask for any vinegar not even one drop, all I asked for was a pinch of salt. They didn’t listen to me. Luckily, my friend loves vinegar so I swapped my dinner for hers. Hers didn’t have vinegar! She came to the rescue, nothing got wasted.

…the vinegar was too sharp…, by Fatima

I love baking competitions! The fact that I am one of the amazing judges is incredible I can't wait! We will be doing a salad theme yay. There are three other judges that will be joining me - let's start! The timer began, after a while all the bakers finished. One by one, we tasted the lovely looking dishes. I tasted the first one and I loved it, it was just perfect. The next one- it was ok I guess, not as good as the first one though. Now...... the last one...... it was horrible the vinegar was too sharp!

…the vinegar was too sharp…by Joshua D

It was a frosty night in England, my mum (who was an amazing cook) had just made some sausage and chips. It sent a brilliant lingering smell throughout the dull, jet-black room.  

“Finally!” I shouted, my mouth started to water continuously.  

My mum, taking all the caution in the world, sluggishly walked over to the insecure table and placed it down. The smell started to float up even more, so it rushed through my nostrils. I snatched the beautiful vinegar out of my brother’s hands and took a bite like a lion, but the vinegar was too sharp. 

…the vinegar was too sharp… by Roxanne

“I’ll take a fish and chip special delight please,” stated John, “and add extra vinegar as well, thank you!” He carefully counted out the total cost of the meal (£11.54) and sat down on a flashy blood-red table, with a matching wobbly chair.

Around 20 minutes later, his meal was served, the mouth-watering delicate food was now in his ownership. He took his first big bite on a wonky chip and almost immediately spat it out! The vinegar was too sharp! He asked a nearby waitress for a refund but still had to pay.

“Next time, I won't add anymore vinegar...”

…the vinegar was too sharp…, Madi

I got out my can of mushy peas and opened them with a tin-opener. Grabbed out the vinegar and accidentally poured it in! I had a taste because I didn’t know if it was alright or not... Ewe! The vinegar was too sharp. The taste was awful, and my mouth tingled as though it had just been electrocuted or something. Then, I ran to the bathroom and rinsed my mouth out with water until the pain went away. It took a few mouthfuls off water, but it finally disappeared. A few moments later I went downstairs and got another can!

…the vinegar was too sharp…by Jessica

As we sat down for tea, mum said, “Don’t forget the salt and vinegar, it goes really well with fish and chips.” We had spent all day peeling the potatoes and cooking the fish. After I had set the table, I sat down and poured the vinegar onto my chips and started to eat my food. I soon realised I may have put a bit too much vinegar on. The vinegar was too sharp. I quickly got a glass of water and gulped it down. That tasted much better than vinegar.

…the vinegar was too sharp… by Anissa

In a bad-looking house, a girl called Amber was cooking a dinner for her lovely family. When she saw a puppy out of the window, she didn’t realise that she was pouring the vinegar all the time she was looking at the dog. She tasted it just to see if it could be okay, but the vinegar was too sharp and it tasted like a mouthful of soy sauce. It was way too sharp because half of the bottle had poured onto the dinner. She was so disappointed. When her family came, she quickly started to make another dinner.

Today was the day when the vinegar was too sharp. Sitting on a seat eating some chips, I noticed that the vinegar on my delicious chips had a really funny taste which made them taste really sharp (in a bad way). Standing up going towards the chef of the restaurant, I asked, “Why does the vinegar on my chips taste sharp?”

And he replied with, “Sorry but our vinegar is sharp so if you do not like it just don’t come back.” After that day I never went to that fish and chips shop for the rest of my life.

“Thomas can you pass me the vinegar please?” Amy asked politely, adding salt to her chips. Thomas passed her the vinegar and Amy poured it on her chips, but something wasn't right, when Amy ate a vinegar covered chip the vinegar was grey - the vinegar was too sharp, but Amy did not care she just kept eating and eating and eating.

Ten minutes later, Amy passed out and dropped to the floor. When police found and examined the vinegar they found it was highly dosed with soya sauce - it was way more than a human could handle and one of Amy's family made it but who?

Last week, the scariest thing happened. I came home to find mum screaming in pain and her hand pouring with blood. I saw the vinegar jar smashed on the floor; glass shards were everywhere! Then, out of the blue, a man's voice said, "Hm, I guess the vinegar was too sharp." The man chuckled before saying, "She won't make it out alive, I’m sorry." He smiled again, it looked sinister.

Suddenly I was grabbed by the back of my neck and dragged out the house. "LET ME G-" I screamed, but it was cut off by something big and black.
