neway it said that you needed someone to email you the full story of the wall building activity well here it is, as best as i can put it!!?:
 
Wall building at hebden bridge
 
Well, as some of you may aleady know i went to "BUILD A WALL" this weekend !
it was FAB...(Kinda)... well put it this way i didn't think it was gna be as hard as it was!
 
Had a bit of a reunion wiv sum RYLA lot! OLVER and JADE MARK  KEN and of course BEXS, and met sum new ppl as well which was great!
 
so 1st day
we turned up on the friday night at about..8pm was supposed to turn up at 7.30 but we can blame that on the navigator... STEPH! or should i say the none-navigator!
that was a great night all we did was get aquainted with the place all over again and watch movies!! YAY!!
that was the easy part. Watched the fantastic 4 and Waterboy... has anyone actually seen that movie! how wierd is that movie?!!
had pizzaswhich of course was great... ahem ahem... who was it that had seconds, and thirds.. u know who u r?!
 
so.. 2nd day
heres where it all went downhill. (only joking) At least we didnt get woken up until half 7, unlike RYLA getting woken up by a fog horn at 6..6.30 was it? had breakfast and a whole long, long, long day ahead of us!
 
we actually built the wall that needed building which was great, we filled the spaces and back with broken bricks, and morter, oliver had a go at breaking the bricks with a sledgehammer!, im almost certain that he loved it! we moved the bricks from the middle of the car park to the top near the hostel, which took a very long time, carrying, filling, and cleaning!, and oh yeah the bricks were 64kilos, without breaking them in half! trust me i'm paying the price now with aching muscles!, but they are soothing down now..! couldnt even copy off the board properly on the monday in school because of my wrist and biceps hurting so much.
 
i must say that the RYLA lot do know how to feed u properly!, once again a certain sumone went for seconds and thirds but it was funny dnt blame him the food was fab!
got absolutely filthy as hell, my mum was not very pleased with the washing load when i got home!!
 
but hey wot can i do about it!
that saturday night was fab as well! apart from the fact that i got scolded and froze to death at the same time.. those showers really need to get fixed !
 
we played cards as well, i must say irish snap is a fab game! Ken bless him was a bit slow on the uptake of the actual game but hey wot can you do, at least everyone else didnt lose!!
we watched the bourne identity. it realy is a good movie isn't it!
 
ddint get to sleep until late we stayed up debating with oliver, and thats the reason why im not doing politics !.... fun though, so i guess the night took us into the early hours of the morning of the sunday!
 
so... lastly the 3rd day!
we cud not be bothered with getting up! what time did we actually manage to drag ourselves out of bed?! i cant remeber, i took the easy job of pumping the water out of the well, others put down the paving along the wall. and then we pumped out the muck, n mud from the bottom of the well! hehe got out of that one!! the mattresses got changed as well in both the girls and boys rooms, and the road got cleaned, by means of 2 leaf bloweres, shovels and rakes! that was quite an easy job as well ....just really really boring, lunch came quick n fast, n once agen it was fab... we sort of monovered the contents of the table to favour those of us from RYLA !whoops! that was fun though, and packed our bags! not that some people had much to pack?!
and come 2.30-3.00  we were heading home!
it was a fun filled long weekend, fun! nice to meet up with old mates! and got a few jobs dun along the way!
cant wait for another get together maybe next time with most of the RYLA crew!
we can dream !
 
 
an overall fantastic! fun!, and eventful weekend!
