Its a very cold winter day and I can't get the sight of Sir Thomas Sullavin out of my head. He is so dreamy with his pitch black curly hair and very deep chest nut eyes with a little shine. He had come around on his horse Zoey today with my fathers spade. He had been building a shed for his fathers farm animals. His father has a very cold soul and shallow blue eyes. His the crulest man around our little village. Sir Thomas Sullavin is the same age as me. sixteen. Sir Thomas Sullavin is not a bit like his father. He is warm hearted and sweet like his dear mother. God rest her soul she died while milking their cow Rose. I shant say to much cause he told none of my secrets about how when i stold Mr Connelys potatos when we were very poor and when my older brother John was ill and my father up the cuntry in Donegal earning fifty pence a day.

A good start - I am looking forward to the rest of it.
