All the house’s are close together. On the street there is Poo everywhere because they didn’t have toilets. And when it rain’s it is very smelly and Very dirty. The sewers killed thousands of people. The Great Plague has arrived. The bodies lie on the streets and a man with a cart takes them away and burn them and you can smell death everywhere. On day I went to the shop to buy some bread and the man said to put my money into the vinegar to make it clean. And when I was in the shop I heard a woman say, “My husband has the plague. He has black lumps all over his body and the doctor said to put leeches on his body to suck blood out of his body.’’ she said.” I went home very quickly. The next day my brother started complaining about being very sick. He said he had a high temperature and a headache. I burnt herbs around my brother’s bed. I was worried the rest of my family might catch it. So I sent for the doctor and he, said he would be here in 10 minutes. There was a ring at the door. It was the doctor. He was wearing a white coat so you could not see his clothes. I woke up and went in to see my brother and he was awake I look at him said he was not feeling sick no more I’m happy that he is better. 10 days later now? Cured and normal.

I am 9 and have two sisters Lauryn and Katie, they are 10.I live in London. The houses are built close together. Every street is smelly and dirty because people throw poo out the window, that makes s sewers. It piles up in the street until the rain washes it away. One day I walked to the shop to buy some bread. The owner told me to put the money in the vinegar, and then he lifted it. People think vinegar kills disease. I was walking home when I saw people {dead} getting thrown on a bonfire I was in my bed when my sister Katie was shouting,”Mummy, mummy! ” Lauryn and I went into her room, she had black lumps everywhere .We called the doctor and he said if you get a high temperature you have the plague. The next day she did not just have that but a headache, vomiting and muscle pains. We were never to go near her. The doctor gave us leeches. A week later it was getting better. Then after a mouth it was gone and she was relieved she said to everybody, “leeches do work,” but I think she was just lucky. EMMA MURPHY. THE PLAGUE My name is Joseph .I live in London it is 1665. The houses were all built together. I am 9 years old. There are no toilets. We have to go in a bucket and then throw it out the window. When it rains it starts to go smelly .This is because there no sewers. It was the smelliest place ever. The plague has killed thousand of people. The bodies lie there until the man came with the cart and bell came to take them away. They were smelly, have disease and death everywhere. They were throwing up out the window. One day I went to the shop for bread I saw a bonfire .I was in the shop when I was waiting for my bread. A woman said” my husband has black lumps. Then the doctor came and he put leeches on his sores to suck the blood out. Put the money in vinegar. But it is very dirty. The next day my sister was very sick, “She was complaining a bout a headache and a sore throat “. I burn the herbs beside her bed and it will make it kill the sickness go away. My mummy is very worried in case anyone else gets it. My family sent for the doctor .The next day there was no sign of the sickness. My relived were so happy. It did not return. It did make her stay in bed for another week. Then she went out to play with her friends. She has never had it again. I can’t believe you have beaten the plague. You are so lucky. JOSEPH MC DONNELL The Accident There were two children. There were called David and Brandon. They cycled out of Belfast to Newry to his friend about a football match. David was wearing a Liverpool kit and Brandon was wearing a Liverpool tracksuit. They went to his friend called Thomas who was wearing a Celtic kit. So we went on are bikes. We stopped for a minute because we all heard a Nissan skyline drift round the corner wheels spinning. The people in the car were getting chased by the police and the car skidded on ice and slide in to a wall. It was very cold. So the police phoned the ambulance to get the people out of the car. We all stepped in till the people got out of the car and they were taken away. They were scared. Then David and Brandon were bleeding a bit. The diver had a broken leg. ”Get your phone and phone them again,” said Brandon. David phoned them .They is coming now. When the ambulance came the car stared to hiss and smoke went where. The driver’s life was saved by two children. When the police and the ambulances were going the police said, “Do you want a lift” to your friends.
