1. Going Along The Oxford Canal
By Andrew

I went to help my dad's friend Ian on his canal boat. We travelled down the canal to the turning point, to turn the boat around to empty the toilet out and fill the boat up with diesel. We then passed a few other boats as we made our way back, including one which had wood on it. We saw some people chopping the wood up into logs for their boat's fire. Then we took the boat back to the marina to tidy the boat up then we had lunch.

Oxford united fc play at Kassam Stadium on Saturday. This week the score was nil-nil. Kassam Stadium was built in 2002. London road stadium was sold for £6000 and and this money went to build kassam stadium

 


3. YAMAHA BANSHEE

The Yamaha Banshee is a very nippy quad and it has a top speed of 72 MPH

It has a pully cord that cuts the motor out when you fall off.

However, it’s a bit temperamental and can jolt forward when you pull back the throttle.
