No one really knows how it began, but everybody knows how it ends! The week of the fight includes a fireworks party, music, dancing, colourful street parades and even a huge paella cooking contest. Then, about 30,000 people throw around 100,000 kg of tomatoes at each other for one hour. Experience Life as a Pirate in the Cayman Islands Have you ever wanted to be a pirate?

Read the article and choose the correct answer. You wrote it! In this month's article, Portia Plymouth-Rock tells us what she's taking on her summer holiday, and how to pack it! Great advice Portia – and you have won a €100 voucher to spend at funnybagsforyou.com – a great website that is sponsoring this month's YOU WROTE IT. So, you're going on a summer holiday and your mum says you have to pack your bag yourself! What now? Here are some tips for packing that I've learnt the hard way! ● First, find out how much you can take – if you are going on a long flight, you can sometimes take more, but not always, so it's Important to check. Make sure your bag is a strong one of good quality. Once, when I went to get my bag, I realised that it was open! Everyone could see what was in my bag! Oops! ● Find out what you're going to do, and what the weather will be like at your destination. Then make a list of all the clothes you plan to take. And then divide that in half, so if you have four tops, take two. One year, I went on holiday and I didn't wear half the clothes I had with me! So ask yourself a few questions like do you really need five pairs of shoes? (No!) Also, if it's a summer holiday, you're probably going to be wearing your swimsuit most of the time. Make sure you pack two – nothing worse than trying to get into a wet swimsuit! ● Do you hate that feeling when you can't find what you're looking for in your bag? Me too! Placing smaller bags inside the bigger bag is the best solution. That way you can easily reach everything. ● It's essential to take things to keep yourself busy while you're travelling and while you're relaxing by the pool. Don't leave it too late to think about your holiday reading and listening. Create some holiday playlists for your phone and find some new books by your favourite authors. You could also keep a day so that in the cold winter months you can read about your wonderful summer! Also, if you're travelling by plane, don't forget that any liquids have to be in a clear plastic bag. ● Don't leave packing until the last moment. Make a list of everything you need about two weeks before. Then get everything ready. You can also pop it into your bag a couple of days before – just check it all fits!
