please say how good this story is on a scale of 1 to 10
1,2,3,4 are void

Bill, Sam and Katy were watching their favourite TV program which was the Tweenies. Bill and Sam were five year old twins and Katy was six. It was coming up to Bill and Sam’s birthday. Katy had a birthday three weeks after Bill and Sam’s.

When there Birthday comes and they both wish for different things. Bill wished he could have a TV which showed the Tweenies all day, and Sam whished he could be one of the Tweenies. Mum and Dad went out to the TV shop and bought a new TV with a video player so Bill could watch the Tweenies all day. they also bought a Tweenies game so that Sam could be a Tweenie. When they got there wishes they were watching and playing all day.

Three weeks later Katy had her birthday and she wished she could have a magical TV which she could talk to, so Mum and Dad went to the TV shop and bought a magical TV.
They all went to bed and read there story books and fell fast asleep.

One night the magical TV turned itself on and sucked Bill, Sam and Katy into the TV. They were all in the TV with all their favourite Tweenies were there. They played lots of games with the Tweenies for hours then the Tweenies disappeared! Everything went fuzzy then it snowed, but then that disappeared! Suddenly everything flashed! Then pink, yellow, red and green turtles appeared. The turtles spun around towards them! Bill, Sam and Katy ran until a massive green turtle the biggest they had ever seen crushed them. Then nothing. All they could see was a big window and someone sat down, they looked very carefully it was there Mum! Mum moved away they all ran to the window then Bill spotted “MARIO LAND” and a big turtle like the one they saw on the cover.

Mum calls “tea time” Bill, Sam and Katy rush to the table and Dad says he went down to the game store and bought a new game. The whole family sit around the computer and play “Mario” with each other.

Bill and Sam and Katy think it was a dream but was it a dream?

feedback please! 1 to 10

...said the man while being pedantic about it.

Anyway, I have no such qualms, pedantry is the lifeblood of forum spats: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=whilst

You can apologise WHILE (or whilst) having the last word.

it's a shame that them thar popular ratings are void.

notice that many have opted for the nearest legal to 1 rating.

i always hate it when you cant tell if someones being sarcasticlly spastic, or (not meaning to offend) just spastic.

my answer is that you need to read more.

Someone gave it a minus five, and another gave it 5 because you dissalowed 1-2-3-4.

So thats MINUS five out of ten, and 1-2-3-4 out of ten.

I will give it minus one, and you can add one point for every year that you are below six years of age.

And that's out of ten.

Ys, bcs I rly do wnt 2 mk the efrt 4 ths tpc

As for yourself: Capital letters for the first letter of each name, surely?

And, I think it should have been "whilst" instead of "while" but I really cannot be bothered to waste time being pedantic about it.

Harsh but utterly correct, unless b銊ánt is 5 years old, in which case he has a bright future.

I'm fairly nonplussed by it. Couldn't comment either way. If it's meant to be ironic, it failed in every sense.

If not, then there are issue here that need addressing.

That's a fair comment because you spelled all your words correctly, put the apostrophe in the right place and used capital letters in an appropriate manner. A* lit crit for you, well done. Now let Belldandy copy your notes.
