Well this new Blogger has kept me busy trying to work out how to do all the posts, colour changes and template changes! Even Rosa was struggling yesterday tring to make the size of the sidebar headings smaller but we failed! This new Blogger is easier in one way, but not entirely flexible! I'll do my best!
Anyway, those of you who have old blogs might as well keep them as evidence of all the great work you did last year. Once again, I have included links to Rosa's 2007 blog and Time4English. I hope you make use of them.
Did any of you go to see the Queen Mary 2 or the QE2 cruise ships yesterday? They certainly caused a sensation in the harbour. The photos in the paper are amazing! I heard though, that the traffic jams and transport chaos were not good at all!
Do a search on Google and find out the following information about the ship!
1. When was she built? and where?
2. How big is the Queen Mary?
3. How many people can sail on it?
4. How many crew are on board?
5. How long did she spend in Sydney and where is she going next?
Post your answers in Comments.
