Today I have found out why England drives on the other side of the road.
In small-is-beautiful England, though, they didn't use monster wagons that required the driver to ride a horse; instead the guy sat on a seat mounted on the wagon. What's more, he usually sat on the right side of the seat so the whip wouldn't hang up on the load behind him when he flogged the horses. (Then, as now, most people did their flogging right-handed.) So the English continued to drive on the left... Keeping left first entered English law in 1756, with the enactment of an ordinance governing traffic on the London Bridge, and ultimately became the rule throughout the British Empire. It extended the rule in 1772 to towns in Scotland. The penalty for disobeying the law was 20 shillings. the UK Government introduced the General Highways Act of 1773, containing a keep left recommendation to regulate horse traffic. This became law as part of the Highways Bill in 1835.

The Uninvited
it was sooooooo good! but it was confusing....
the girl, Anna, she didnt mean to start a fire, and she got mad at her sister so she didnt mean to nock dow a candel. so now her sister and her mom died in the fire. and her dad is daiting a women who is a nurse. and Anna thinks she killed a bunch of people. so anna and her sister alex (who is dead and anna thinks she is really there) kill the women who is daiting her dad.)
ok i know its really confusing and its not as bad as it sounds! trust me!

The Unborn!
The Unborn was really good. I was kind of mad becuase it wasnt scary, well it was pg 13 so maybe i should have seen that coming. U could see when something was going to pop out. I t was sad too. The women who played Casey is a really good actress. Everytime my friend Kaitlynn got scared she hit me in the arm ( now my arm hurts). U have to see it!
