Historical figure - Sir William Wallace

This topic im studying involved an interview with a famous historian, i chose Sir William Wallace.



No one knows William Wallaces birth date he was born in a town called Elderslie Scotland, although claimed born around 1270 some say it was 1276.



We had an interview about what has happened in his life and he seemed happy to express what has happened to him.



So to start off when was the first fight you had in charge of scotlands army?

"This was also led by a man named Andrew moray, my first battle would have been the battle of Stirling Bridge which we won and royted the English army. Also if i remember correctly was against the Earl of Surrey who's proffesional army was 13000 strong"



sounds like a rough day that then, how was your other battles that you had?

"Well same as above really like I said always outnumbered at any occasion so was never an easy battle"

What you think you will be most remembered for?

"I think possibly leading the Scottish army and defending us from the English and allowing us to be our own country that isn't under the command of the English at the time"

Well thanks for your time Sir was nice interviewing you!

"You too"

The Enchanted Forest: Page 4






you enter the house and have a look around. You look in the mirror and see a shadowy figure behind you, you ask "who's there?" but no reply then it starts walking towards you you slowly move towards the door and then the beast jumps in front of the door. You let out a scream and run up the stairs manbearpig follows you. you run into a room and slam the door shut behind you and block it with a cupboard. The beast starts slamming on the door. you jump out the window. You see a few things lying on the floor.

Heres a little joke

There was a guy who died and went to heaven. He noticed that heaven was full of clocks so he asked St. Peter, "what are the clocks for?" and St. Peter answered, "the clocks move everytime a person tells a lie.
"So the guy looked around and noticed that George Bush's clock was missing."Where is the president's clock?" He asked.St. Peter replied, "It's in hell. Satan's using it as a ceiling fan."

Great Movie!


The Green Mile is an excellent film in my opinion. The story is great and has a good cast of stars in it. It's about a man thats wrongly accused of murder and put on death row. This film has a mix of emotions in it ranging from funny and thrilling to a really sad story. I was suprised when i saw this film as I thought I wouldnt like it but after i saw it, I thought it was superb and i recomend this film to all that hasnt seen it yet.

Collaborative writing

I started to abandon hope of changing my ways. Nathan now dead due to me being on drugs and the people I have been hanging around with. If anything is going to change for the better I must decide what I have to do, if i wait much longer I will lose hope of fixing what I have caused, this made my brother die looking out for his family. My parents may also be in trouble now I must do something before i plunge into despair and lose hope of everything.

Radio 1

Radio 1 has been going for years now from early 1900's maybe 1920's. This at one point was a very controversial radio station as it was sending out illigal broadcast's all the time.

When the 1960's came there was a giant culture shock, it was like the beggining of a new era. No one wanted to play the music that was coming from this era so Radio 1 decided they would like to play this music on air.

The Radio station was out on a boat and is known as "pirate broadcasting" it was illegal but because they werent within 7 miles they couldnt be charged for it. There was a well know DJ on the radio 1 boat named Tony Blackburn. Eventually they got rid of this law and Radio 1 got its head quaters in London.

Radio 1 is one of the most known raido stations in the UK. It has quite alot of people that go on air but there is a few well known ones compared to the rest for example, Chris Moyles and Jane Wiley. This would possibly be the most popular radio station in the UK.

The next Generation

The next generation of games consoles are all out now. You have the Playstation 3, Nintendo Wii and the Xbox 360. They all have differences in all them, the Nintendo wii uses normal DVD disks but the controlers used have a strange kind of sensor on them that allows u to use the controller as a golf club while you play golf games or use as stearing wheel while playing driving games. The Xbox 360 uses HD disks which are of greater quality and allow better quality on an hdtv. The Playstation 3 uses blu-ray DVDS its like super HD the controllers use a tilt function which allows full control of the games that you play.

The Who

The Who's greates hits is my favourite album. The music is great, its ranged style of rock from slow quiet songs to fast loud songs. They have a few guitar solo's in their songs to.

You can probably get this album in HMV or Virgin if not you should be able to on e-bay
Their best songs in my opinion would be Generation, Who are you and Pinball Wizard, if other people think differently please say which ones that you like.

Their website is: http://www.thewhotour.com/

class concert

In my opinion Bob Marley was a good singer but i dont like his style of music. I prefer other music to his but to some people he was looked up to as a sort of role model and its understandable to the people that liked his music.
