With my loving happy family I went to the deep, in Hull, we had an exiting time. We saw carp; goldfish; salmon;  the catfish; sting ray; sharks and dolphins. But this one tank had no fish in it, it was strange. All in separate tanks, but all we could see was water in one tank no fish, no coral, no nothing! Apart from water, I was the first one to see the lifeless tank, it was eerie and very strange indeed……

“Hey mum, look at this it’s a tank with no fish, come quick!” I screamed at my mum!

“I’m coming, what is the big fuss?”

Dear diary,

Today mum and dad took me to an aquarium to see all the fish. They were some beautiful fish, some tropical and some dull but they all looked amazing. And then after we went for lunch in the aquarium café I had a bacon sandwich and a shmoo it was scrumptious. After that we went back in to the fish area and we lined up for the underwater lift when it was finally our turn I jumped into the lift as quick as lightning because I was so excited and when the lift started moving I was screaming …..but all we could see was water….....

Super Fish, the fastest and greatest fish in the whole ocean! Every summer all of the fish gather

together in a stadium for the ultimate one hundred metre swim. This year Super Fish was defending his title for the second time. They were all at the starting point waiting for the buzzer. On your marks get set go! They were off speeding as fast as they could but Super Fish was right ahead he was like a flash of lightning. Suddenly he lost control knocking him unconscious. He had disappeared but all we could see was water. 

Where was he?

Once my Nana took us to this camp and it was really boring! All we did was play really horrible kiddie games like pass the parcel but like my Nan, she didn't even wrap the parcel and the parcel wasn't even something good, it was one of those creepy Barbie dolls.

The next morning my Nan suggested we could go down to the field and I didn't want to hurt her so we did but all we could see was water going on for miles and miles which never stopped going! My Nan suggested we should go back, I agreed.

When me and my family went to a jungle in Australia we went because we love to explore, when we got there we started to walk and obviously explore then we came to a stream and it never stopped all we could see was water it looked fairly deep we just stood there and watched. Then is raised my voice and said, “Hello!” and it echoed it made the water shake so I just said to my Mum, Dad and Sister let’s just get out of here so we walked all the way back to the helicopter.

“Mum, do we have to go out on the boat?”

“Yes, I told you that you needed some fresh air,” my mum moaned to me. I groaned and carried on walking down to the beach. “Hop on then,” mum raised her voice. Thud was the sound, as I jumped onto the boat. She took the hook off, that was the only thing keeping us from floating away. The boat rocked from side to side, and in the distance all we could see was water. 

After about an hour or two, we finally landed back on dry land.

One day, on my way to school, I spotted a pink gorilla. I was startled because not only was it pink but it was playing a grand piano really well. Then surprisingly it started talking it said "well hello there what's your name young lady!"

"Hello mister my name is Rose!" I replied.

"Well then Rose today is your lucky day 'cause I'm gonna sing you a song!" The gorilla started to sing a song all about me. The song that the gorilla sung was funny, and I laughed so hard I almost bumped into a man riding a bicycle...

On Monday, when I was at school, my teacher asked for my homework. Then I remembered it was a big project that I had to do for the week, so I said to my teacher that when I was walking to school I saw a grand, pink, furry gorilla on a bicycle. Then the gorilla asked what was in my bag. So I opened it and showed the gorilla what was inside and then as quick as a flash he took my homework biked off while he laughed so loudly it could crack a glass. Then my teacher said, “OK I will let you off.”

Breaking news!

A gorilla has escaped from the Higgilty-Piggilty Zoo! Be careful - this monkey steals shoes!

I laughed wildly. Just as I finished giggling, I heard a creaking wheel behind me. I timidly turned around. The gorilla stood smiling. It had broken through my wall! It had taken my bicycle and our families shoes. The gorilla really was grand. It danced around the house and put on a pink dress! My parents raced into the room and called the zoo-keepers. They came and forced the gorilla into their van. I never saw it again as I realised I had just dug into a magical world...

Once in a zoo there lived a gorilla named Travis. There was however something different about Travis. He was very different from other gorillas because he was bright pink. Every day the same man with a grand bicycle came round and laughed at him. Travis always felt the same, miserable and sad. The man wasn't the only one making fun of him. All the other gorillas started teasing him. The children who came to the zoo never came to his cage because he was pink. But there was one gorilla that never laughed at him or called him names and he was called Freddie.

Tomorrow is my birthday, I wanted a light blue and pink bicycle but when I woke up in the morning there were no presents! I looked everywhere; in the garage, under my bed, in the living room, but still no presents…

“This must be a grand mistake!” I screamed as I jumped up and down.

“Oh look harder,” Dad said to me.

The one place I had not looked the attic…

“Look at that big box!” I exclaimed

I ripped it open; it was a baby gorilla.

“You tricked me,” I laughed.

“Dad I have two questions, where’s my bike? … And where’s my baby gorilla?”

Today, I saw a huge pink gorilla, he was walking down the street casually as if he was a normal person. When I saw him I laughed but he didn't notice me laughing in the background. Not long after he went into a grand old house. He came out on a bicycle, I laughed even more! Then he noticed me, he chased me, I ran as fast as I could. We were both tired and out of breath, he caught me up.  We both fell on the floor and could not stop laughing, he was very friendly. Today was the funniest day of my life!

One day I woke up from my bed. I went outside to get on my bicycle but it was gone. Looking around, I saw a man wearing a gorilla mask to not give facial evidence to the police. I called the grand city police, then the man laughed, shouting, "Catch me if you can!" Then the police came rampaging down the cracked road and zoomed to the man’s pink van they started bashing and crashing into each other like crazy wrestlers! Finally, the van stopped. The police handcuffed the man. The police took the bike to me, then I cycled off down the road.

I was sat on an aeroplane on my way to sunny Spain. I glanced out of the window and to my wondering eyes I saw a pink gorilla flying a plane at the side of me! I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Next the gorilla parachuted out of the plane and landed perfectly on a really cool BMX bicycle. I arrived home after my 3 week long holiday with my grand-parents and told my friends about my adventure with the gorilla and how funny he was. Once again they all laughed at me but maybe it was just a dream.

One frosty afternoon my mum, dad and I went to check out the new grand opening on the high street. It was a Mexican Restaurant, in the window of the restaurant was a funny looking, fluffy and pink gorilla it looked so, so funny. It made me and my mum laugh, even my dad laughed, well for a change. So we thought it was quite funky, so then I said, “Shall we go and have a little look inside?” So my mum and dad said, “Okay then.” So then we went in... All the tables and chairs were pink, it was an epic restaurant.

My mum used to tell me loads of stories but my favourite one was the pink gorilla who went to the grand parade. So this is the story.

Once upon a time there was a gorilla called Bongo who loved to play the bongos. His dream was to play with the band called, 'The Pink Gorillas' and he had a friend called Rupert, who liked riding his bicycle and played the piano. So they played together and they laughed when Bongo fell over his bongos. Sometimes he wondered why he was called Bongo he thought his parents might have known he would play the bongos.

Once, when I was walking down a grand street, the most peculiar thing happened, I saw a pink gorilla riding a bicycle oh and how I laughed at him. He was hilarious; he was doing back flips and all sorts of stuff and I have to say at least every one in that part on the street was laughing at him. Everyone thought he was a boy in a gorilla costume at first but then this girl realised that it was an actual gorilla so she started running away screaming while the rest followed after her. I stayed, I thought he was a cute gorilla!

On my birthday I went to the grand circus with my family, when the show started a pink gorilla came out riding around the ring on a bicycle! He was pulling funny faces and I laughed so hard I had tears rolling down my face, then he jumped off the bike and came into the audience with a plate of cream. He was looking around for a victim, the spotlight was shining all around then it stopped on my dad! The pink gorilla made his way over all the while he was grinning at my dad then with a splat it was on his head!

One day, I was skipping happily down the street, when I saw a pink gorilla riding a giant bicycle. As he saw me, he started to do tricks. Jumping up and down, swirling around, they all were going so well until he tripped up and fell over. As that happened I laughed. When he finally picked himself up, I realized that he was part of a grand parade. The music started and the pink gorilla cycled off into the distance, so I scratched my forehead and started to make my way back home.

When I woke up one morning, I looked out of my bedroom window. I could see a pink gorilla playing the grand piano by the front door. He was playing happy birthday because it was my birthday, I laughed as I ran down the stairs to say thank you to the pink gorilla playing the grand piano. Then I ran in to the front room with my friend the gorilla and I started to open my presents. The first present I opened was the one from Mr Gorilla, it was big and had pink wrapping paper. It was a bicycle, I just stood there laughing.
