On my first day at university, something terrible happened. I was on an Information Technology course and my first class started at nine o’clock. I woke up very late and I had no time for breakfast, so I bought an orange juice from the university cafeteria. I ran into the room and everyone was at a computer. They all looked at me and I went to sit behind a computer, but I still had my orange juice. The teacher said, ‘You can’t drink that in here.’ But as I walked across the room I tripped, and the orange juice went all over a classmate and her computer. Luckily, the computer was OK, and the classmate, Clara, saw the funny side of it. In fact, we’re good friends now. Still, it wasn’t a good start.

NEWS IN BRIEF Clothes designer Stuart Weitzman has the record for the most expensive shoes. They are called the Cinderella Slippers and they cost $2 million. They have diamonds all over them and singer Alison Krauss wore them to the Oscars in 2004.
In 1998, four friends explored a silver mine in North San Diego. They found an old pair of jeans but thought nothing of it. Later, they discovered they were original Levi’s and they were 115 years old! The owners sold them on the Internet for $60,000 and they became the most expensive jeans in the world.
4000 people from all over Australia are trying to make Australia’s longest scarf. You can see 60 metres of the scarf at the Melbourne Craft Fair. But this is only part of it. The final scarf is going to be over 30 km long!

Hi Alan Just a quick postcard from Powerfun Adventure Camp. It’s my last day today and I have had so much fun here. On the first day, I woke up at five in the morning and went sailing all day. We were really lucky because the weather was perfect. The next day we went hiking in the mountains. I was in this forest with a friend called John and we got lost. We didn’t have a compass and it was a nightmare. Luckily, we found our way back to camp before it got dark. I haven’t done many water sports but I went bungee-jumping. That was amazing! Today, we’re going to try hang-gliding. I’m a bit scared but I think it’s going to be brilliant. One week isn’t enough, I can tell you. I want to stay another. See you soon, Billy 1. Billy

BLACKTON ARE KINGS AGAIN!
The Kings beat the Heatley Tigers 104-103 in a very exciting game. The star of the game was the local man Lenny Bolden. He played a truly fantastic game, he scored 32 points and the last two in the last second to win the game for the Kings. The Kings have won four championships in five years and it’s all thanks to their coach, Dave Rippon. He has been with the Kings for ten years now and he has been very successful. Unfortunately, it was Rippon’s last game as coach for the Kings last night. The question is ‘Who is going to be coach next year?’ Well, many fans would like Lenny Bolden.
