Pembrokeshire Cubs Chess and Draughts Competition

On the 19^th of January 2013 I went to Pembrokeshire Cub Scouts Chess & Draughts Competition in Goodwick.

 I saw my friend, James who belongs to a different pack. 

I chose to play Draughts because I’m better at it.  I won four games.

We didn’t win any trophies like we did last time but we had fun and played our best.

Akela, Mowgli and Ziggy said,

“We would like to thank Danny, Findley, Jake and Luke for their plumb determination, dedication and staying power at the Chess and Draughts event held on Saturday. Although we did not come away with any trophies, they came away knowing that they played their best and were fantastic ambassadors for 2nd Milford Haven. And they all said that they had had a great time. Well done boys.”

 

I liked talking to my Cub’s pack in between my games.  We are planning a Cubs Fun Day.

 

On the journey we saw a lot of snow, but I’m glad the roads were clear so we got to take part.

 

Do you like playing Chess and Draughts?

 

It’s fun!  I have my own wooden set but I’d love a Hobbit Chess set.

How awesome is that?

See ya!

I'm a winner!

Hello,

I have won a few things since I last blogged to you.

I won £50 Toys R Us voucher for drawing Father Christmas in Mexico.

 

Yesterday I won four games of Draughts at our Cubs Chess and Draughts Championship.

 I also won SKYLANDERS GIANTS by drawing my own character, CactEye!

 

I am so lucky and grateful as I won a Skylanders Starter Pack.  They are like having a birthday or Christmas present to me.

 

It is brilliant as my dream when I grow up is to test computer games, but I am doing it right now.

Also, as it is my job now, I can play on the XBox more.

I like the new Skylander Giants- they are big and powerful but I wish they could jump more.

I like the new characters as they light up on the portal.

 

Cool!

The game is fun and I found it easy to set up.  I think my sister, Rebecca would like it too as she is six.  

My favourite character is Eye Brawl, but I don't have him.  He says, "I've got my eye on you."  I like the Undead characters.  I have Cynder.

I also have Tree Rex, a Giant from Life, and Jet Vac, a light up from Air.   

I like being a Giant and picking up rocks and throwing them.  I hope they make bigger Giants and rocks.

I hope I get to test out more Air and Fire figures as they are cool.

If my friends need a new game to play I will tell them to get Skylanders Giants as it's fun and I would like to play with them.  We could also play together with our figures and cards.

 Thank you Mum for telling me about this competition.

I'll tell you more about my game soon.

bye

Danny
