Most Friday nights I go to a Youth group run by the local church. I started going to these youth group last year when one of my friends invited me to go with her one night. After that I start inviting all my other friends and it has become the thing we all do on Fridays.

Last night’s activity involved ice-cream, water, washing detergent, a hill and a long sheet of plastic. Can you guess??? A water slide, like a slip’n’slide, which also used ice-cream. We had a boggy board to go down, but you didn’t go that fast on that, so Enoch had a great idea of getting a run up and jumping onto your bum and going down that way. That was fun, but I wore jeans on the slide and kind of brought half of the thing down the hill with me. So Enoch said that the jeans might rip the slide, so he gave me his shorts (yuck) and they one’s he was just wearing.

The slide was about 12 metres long and half way down the slide there was a big tree. Every time someone when down I was just hoping that they were going to run into it.
Some people like Scott W hid behind the tree and through buckets of water at people as they when down the slide. Other had a good time throwing buckets of water over people’s heads. Every time you when down the slide you had to fill up a bucket of water and bring to the top of the slide so it didn’t dry out.

Sliding on your bum was fine until you got to the end of the plastic and were on the grass. I have rashes on my arms and legs, and scratches on my arms. We started off with just water and detergent, but later we used ice-cream on it. It smelt really funky. My T and Enoch shorts reek, and some people smelt worst than others. And it didn’t help that everyone throwing ice-cream at everyone else. I’ll get you Jacob and Ryan (Kaitlin’s little bro).

April and some of my other friends were getting cold so we went inside and changed. I didn’t bring a change of clothes so I wore Aprils spare T-shirt and because my jeans were wet it would have taken hours for them to dry, so I just kept the shorts on because it took about 30min for them to dry. (I will return your shorts washed ok Enoch and I will return your T washed ok April) To keep ourselves warm we kicked around a soccer ball. Scott H (April’s bro) went down the slide topless and he was pink. Oh and I will give your phone back Scott H cause you left it behind. I want my towel back to Will.

Over all the night was really fun, but I wouldn’t used ice-cream again, smells too much. Next lets try jelly!!!
