Same but I ended up writing about a fire on my holiday and said I'd had to spend my whole holiday in the hospital. Does anybody know how many marks I'm going to lose.

You should've been prepared, Just make sure you do well in Paper 2 and you'll be grand.

Well obviously that's not very helpful :L our teacher only prepared those stories with us and told us we could always squeeze it into something.. But turns out we can not

I wrote that I was walking home and I bought some sweets, then the shop got robbed

Anyways I managed to wangle one when you were playing music in your school into it. I also did a match for the first one.

Brilliant paper !!!! Listening, comprehension and grammar part were amazing, I wrote about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West coming to my school, he got hit in the face with a football, and she fell off the plane... Hope the examiner likes it and sees the funny side!

Did anyone else think that the last question on the first comprehension (the conprehension about the hobbit) was a bit vague? It was the question about why the manager of the shop was happy with the night.

It was, but all you had to do was go to the end of the second paragraph and quote what he said.

I did the greanmhar one, I wrote about playing a funny joke on my teacher on April Fool's Day which led to me getting suspended and sent home, and on the way home a car crashed into my bike and I went to the ospidéal. At least it was fairly long...

Msrebeckyxo

Listening was okay, comprehensions were okayyy, Trialacha teanga was a bit of a fail for me but my story was decent! Said the principal got hit by a ball and went unconscious and we all laughed at him :P

Yeah I did that...I eventually copped what I was meant to do about five minutes before the end! My essay was about how my class played a trick on the teacher by turning the tables the wrong way around and not talking to him...not very funny but watevs :L

I did a fire the only thing that is making me feel better is that the topic is only worth 8 marks
