The Lion King

In the holidays, my family and I went to HOYTS cinema to watch the new movie called The Lion King. Well it's kind of a old movie (Remake), but this Lion King is a new one with new parts and new scenes.

The characters of the lion king are Simba, Mufasa, Nala, Shenzi, Zazu, Timon, Pumbaa, Scar, Sarabi, Azizi, Kamari, Rafiki and (Hyenas).

The movie had lots of comedy parts  like Pumbaa and Timon were fighting the hyenas
One of the sad moments in the movie was when Simbaa lost his dad (Mufasa)
But one of the really weird parts was when Timon and Pumbaa were eating bugs.



The voice behind the characters.

46 million Australian banknotes printed with a spelling mistake

6 Million bank notes in Australia have been printed with a spelling mistake.

The mistake has been found on Australia’s new $50 bill which was introduced last October.

One side of the bill depicts Edith Cowan, the first woman to serve in Australia’s parliament. Beside her image is small text of her first speech in parliament.

It is in this small text that the spelling mistake occurs. They spelt responsibility as responsibilty!

“It is a great responsibilty to be the only woman here, and I want to emphasise the necessity which exists for other women being here,”

The misspelling occurs three times on the note.

The mistake was spotted by a listener of Australian radio station Triple M, who sent a zoomed-in picture of the note to the radio station.

The suspension will last until Monday, when Lime will have another opportunity to present information to the Auckland Council regarding equipment safety.
