Talbot's House

Ickwell Trip

The big trip to Ickwell, on the second Sunday of the first term. Everyone from Talbot’s house enjoyed themselves and had a great time. We played a lot of fun sports, like football, rugby etc and also a lot of games, like four way chess. We also had a fire, made amazing spears, tried trapping crayfish and melting marshmallows, and, you guessed it, lots of them burned. We also had competitions like the steak cooking competition. Tizian, our German friend, won by his awesome ribeye steak, although Harun was very close to victory.
At the end of our trip, we went to collect the traps, but unfortunately we did not catch any crayfish. Obviously, cleaning up after us is what every human being should do, so we made sure that the area is extra clean and green. We also made sure that the fire was completely out and there is no way that it can be relit accidentally. We packed all or things and left Ickwell. On the bus, lots of boys were tired and fell asleep, this was a fun day.
