Found these delights....

From 2009 boardmasters lurking on my laptop, definately one of the better weekends of my 19 years. It had all the ingredients for an amazing time: bmx,south african girls,beaches,camping,a shed load of alcohol, essex boys & Eisa bakos. As far as occasions of unrelenting filth & good times go its one of the best.

This is beautiful.



This honestly gave me a warm feeling inside watching it, heard the song a year or two ago but the video is something else. Anyways im off to watch the warriors & try and find some rizzla in this bombsite of a house.

Life is good..

a bank balance of -£1,222 is never a good sign. If it would only stop raining for five minutes, all would be well as I've noticed some killer spots lately.

Its at desperate times like these I realise how few free things there are in this south western peninsula of England. here's a list of possibilities for the two weeks until i can leech of my parents festive spirit in Basingstoke:

-Go and see an art show/film night which seem to be on at uni every week.
-Go out for a minesweep
-Spotify
-Scribble rocket cocks & other imaginative slogans all over my bike.
-edit my clothes somehow
-megadrive/PS2
-write this thing(although it won't be very interesting me having not money to do anything and all that jazz)
-Go to the uni library
-Ride a carpark (the chances of a dry day this side of march being approximately 1 in 7 million.)
-Try & blag free membership to the new indoor park
- Find me an easy girl for entertainment/warmth/ego boost although this usually involves some degree of alcohol or money.
-Plan for when i have money.

That's all i got, anyone else got any suggestions?

Straight east coastin....

Tomorrow I'm off on a 400 mile round trip to a land of ankle swingers, cream trench coats & shoreditch haircuts, yes Brighton. It should be a treat as im off to see my dear friend & BIM student Lewis for a few shandies & some rad music hopefully.

In the meantime watch this its pretty dang good alex kennedy has some bangers & the last clip is just straight out nuts, Owen cleggs your boy.

Here's a pretty sweet edit of the man himself, oh & i hate the remix why ruin an amazing song that way?

Lurkers..

Found this lurking in my drafts...

Well it seems the southwest winter has well & truly set in, i can't remember the last time i rode & the days of wearing shirts or anything other than a coat & beanie are long gone. So with the absence of exercise & anything worthwhile on the TV, time has to be spent well. This is where the gift of drinking games applies, whilst you probably shouldn't do this everyday unless you want to look like a father Christmas/werzel gummage combo prematurely but a few times a week is definitely good for you? and solves winter boredom if nothing else. I thought I'd share a few of my personal favourites.


1. Song/film/TV show or anything with words.... Anyone over the age of 18 who hasn't done this at some point in their life is clearly lying or the product of an extremely sheltered upbringing. Basically you pick a song or film or whatever tickles your pickle which repeats a phrase or word several times, for example Bob Marley's 'jammin' or Police's 'Roxanne' & drink every time a certain word is repeated for example:

"Rooooooooooxaaaaaane" = a hearty shot/mouthful of white ace or whatever you happen to be wrapping your lips around.

My personal favourite for this game is Task force's 'Wah Blow', its pretty much impossible to complete ( about 50 times in four minutes or something) & if you do you can walk round with the swagger of a North London Grime collective for the rest of the night. If you wanna do it to a film do it with Scarface (every time 'fuck,fucking or mang' comes up), anyone who can last more than half an hour without feeling a little sick & not irritated by the sound of a Cuban accent has my undying respect.


2. Four kings/Ring of fire..... Contrary to what the latter suggests this game has nothing to do with rectums or hangover toilet antics. It basically a genteel game of cards only with the opportunity to get yourself & everybody else as drunk as you like. I could go into the rules but that would take me way to many characters & a few too many minutes of my Sunday afternoon.




3. Finger spoof.... The simpleton's game, although i have to admit the name suggests some £1 trick you can buy from Hawkins bizarre. Digression aside the game consists of all the player's placing their fingers on a (preferably disgusting) concoction of your choice & taking it in turns to guess the amount of tobacco stained fingers left round the rim when the excited drunkards take them off..... simple? if not i make no apologies despite being the most simple game i know its somehow the hardest to explain, the majority of my friends seem to have a mental block on anything which doesn't involve multiple rules & consequences.




4. 21, if this doesn't bring back golden nostalgia of classroom games of cards where the loser got a swift rap across already mashed knuckles, then you can at least have a good time drinking to it. Provided your not playing with paralytic drunks, pre schoolers or anyone else with numerical disorders a game should not take more than three minutes annnd best of all you don't need me to explain it, just ask any self respecting person. ( at this point a ran out of relevant photos so this one will do, it was possibly after/before said game?)





I understand this reads like something which didn't make the grade for vice or some other lame student guide but boredom calls & with such a bland lifestyle during the winter its inevitable these unfortunate pieces of nothing in particular get written.

Oh & the photos are pretty irrelevant i know but i stole most of them from my housemates, so no complaints there.

Bmx definately needs more of this...

I was so hyped on this at the age of 15 back when a ratty bike sprayed 50 different colours & £3.00 bottle of strongbow was all we needed to get us by, i know nostalgia is not good for progression but i honestly prefer those days.

Peas out
