  My name is Jade.
• 0:17
  It was my birthday on Sunday and I had a party.
• 0:22
  But the party almost didn't happen. I'll tell you why. Dad made a shopping list.
• 0:30
  Twenty bread rolls, three packets of chews, ten macs of crisps,
• 0:35
  ten milkshakes, ten cans of lemonade, a packet of napkins,
• 0:41
  and a packet of plates, a packet of balloons, a CD of party music,
• 0:48
  and a big chocolate cake.
• 0:51
  Gave my teenage brother.
• 0:54
  Dad asked him to take me to the shops on the bus to get all the stuff for the
• 1:02
  party We got to the trolley and they looked at the list,
• 1:08
  First we went to the place where they bake bread They picked up 20 rolls and
• 1:14
  put them in the trolley I picked up a currant bun and hid it under the rolls,
• 1:21
  Then I found cheese.
• 1:23
  They found the Corriban and told me to behave.
• 1:29
  Crisp milkshakes, lemonade, the trolley was filling up.
• 1:36
  Party knackings, plates, a big packet of balloons.
• 1:41
  Dave said he'd blow them up. A CD, we got a good one by a new group.
• 1:48
  And then the most important thing, a chocolate cake. The biggest with happy birthday on top.
• 1:56
  We went to the checkout to pay. A girl put all the stuff in the plastic bags and gave them to Dave.
• 2:04
  We raced along the pavement to the bus stop We made a party game on the way
• 2:11
  Dad started to unpack the shopping Okay,
• 2:14
  a packet of stale fish cakes Passed the sale by date Shampoo,
• 2:20
  a cabbage A can of hairspray, a bunch of grapes A jar of marmalade A jumbo pack
• 2:28
  of nappies And Dad's face went pale,
• 2:33
  Goodness save Dave, he said.
• 2:36
  Why have you got to stay? Dave said.
• 2:40
  We must have picked up the wrong shopping by mistake.
• 2:46
  Plastic bags look all the same to me. I'll take the bling tag.
• 2:52
  I'll take it all back to the shops on Monday.
• 2:57
  Well, it was a bit of a shame. I hate grapes. And we didn't need hairspray or
• 3:02
  nappies, but it was okay in the end.
• 3:05
  We had a party at the pizza place instead.
• 3:09
  We had pizza and chips and then came out a man.
• 3:16
  With a birthday cake. A chocolate one with seven sparklers on it. For me.
• 3:24
  The end. And thank you for listening.
