Little David Beckham to miss school trip

I know I'm a big boy now and I've been trying not to cry but I'm still dead upset that I can't go on the school trip to South Africa. Even though I got a gold star from the nurse for being brave my leg still really really really hurts, and it won't be better in time.

I'm a bit older than most of the boys now and I know I can't join in as much as the other summer trips I've been on, but Mr Capello said there would be some things I could help out with and said I could come because I'm always a good boy.
