    I said Alt 2 and then Alt 4 but it was based more on guessing than knowledge

    Did anyone else get the gist of somebody hanging up a mirror in the garden so the horse wouldn't be lonely any more? Honestly between English and Irish there has been some pretty bizarre poetry.

    Happy enough with both papers. Personally thought it was much easier than the dreadful mock we got...

    Ah you never know...what did people think of the unseen prose? It was kind of unusual because of the whole first-person thing but once you got used to that I thought it was fair enough :)

    Paper 2 has made me feel better! Óg and trua!! :D and I answered the unseen prós questions pretty well I think! Unseen poetry was another story :( but I got 2/15 in that in my mock and still got the B so I should be good, definitely scraped a few marks anyway! What was the story actually about?

    Those alt questions are worth 4 marks each, based on my mocks marking scheme.

    Was it about a fairies and trolls who take on the appearance of humans? The narrator was a fairy, her mother killed by a troll. She goes to her brothers friends house and they play games? He asks her sonething and she replies( no idea) He asks her to play a computer game and they go to his room where she feels chills and his eyes go dark and and...have no idea whatsoever. The grandad and brother were in on it?

    Does anyone know if I will lose many marks for the sceal? I used the one starting with the manager calling me, and then quickly changed it to an unrelated timpiste I had prepared.
