Week Three….
18 April 2020
“You bl**dy b*ch!” THUMP ” I hate you!” BASH ” You’re an arsehole!” THUD “Muuuuuuuuuum Dallas hit me!!!!” “Noooooooo Jaz hit meeeee!”
3 weeks, 1 day, 14 hours, 4 minutes, and counting, of isolation with my 7 year old twin brothers, where did they even learn those words? Certainly not from me:). Sometimes I wonder does Jaz’s voice sound like a chainsaw or is it just me? Nah that’s the isolation talking, as annoying as they are I do still love them with all my heart ❤.
In the few days before lockdown we had a new plan every hour as we struggled to decide what to do, and where to go for the 4 week isolation. Our friend Chrissy and her daughter Jasmine my B.S.F (best sister forever) moved in with her partner, so we ended up living in her big beautiful farm house, in the countryside of Motueka!
My days are surprisingly busy! school work, hula hooping; my new passion, baking, reading, and training for next years shows. We already have the plot and most of the sound track for the circus show! This years magic show is martial arts themed, so lots of training for Dad and I. Doing a no handed cartwheel is harder than it looks!
One night we went camping…. in our backyard! Its a super fun thing to do as you can’t actually go camping, I made damper, which we cooked on the fire then stuffed with butter, jam, and nutella. To me nothing spells camping like hot nutella and butter dripping down your fingers, and the blasting heat from the fire on your face.
I have actually been doing a couple of online courses, hula hooping and acting. Online courses are a great thing to do to fill your day and learn new things. Here is the link to the hula hoop courses https://autumnflow.com/, its perfect if your a beginner, intermediate or advanced.
Yesterday we made some funny videos of us being weird😂.
Saying goodbye to our shows is always a momentous occasion, with flowers and a beautiful river. This time was especially sad, as we didn’t even get to finish the season properly. Last season’s show’s were awesome, next season’s show’s will be even better! I would like to say a big thank you to my magnificent family for performing such an amazing show❤.
I hope you enjoyed this blog! Remember Stay calm, Stay safe and Stay home.
Love Dylan Daisy❤

Missing you guys!
Hello Dylan, Thank you for your most interesting,comical blog.
I daresay you all have plenty of time to practice for the upcoming season,sounds different.
I believe there was an article in the Sunday Star Times,& although I found a heading with ‘The colourful life of a travelling fair’ I could not look it up as it seemed to be in the magazine section.
Pa & I would love to read it. Could Dad send a copy of it on the computer possibly, or any other ideas of how we could see it. ??
