Next Level Dinner Time

What bird we were to eat on Sunday was kept a secret from me. I'd never eaten one of these guys...



It's a castrated rooster called a Capon and it's delicious, this is what dinner looked like...



Here is an edited highlight from the Christmas book Wob got me, funny stuff...




Provoked a lot of laughter that did.

Paw print sign off is my favourite bit.

GREY

The New issue of Grey is in store now and it's a good one so come and pick one up...



This guy has 2 photos!!!...



But needs to reign in his ebay addiction. Luigi did a great job of DJ'ing the other night, here's a good one of him and Sahar-two peas in a pod! Although she doesn't want to be in his pod...



Finally we all need to see more of this little guy...



Come to Bardens

Xmas Party

It's been sporadic, soz. Mail order is this time of year's order of the day. Last night was full of cheer and busy to boot. Everyone came out and a good old time was had by all so thanks for making it. Had a lot of fun playing music with this guy...



I'm pretty sure it's the most fun I've ever had playing music, Stu Hammond who was Lev's right hand man last night concurs, Good people, live room, nice times. You can see a few more photos
here
The new Grey is a great one, make sure to pick up a copy in Slam, seeing the City Of Rats trailer Henry has put together was exciting, people are hyped, it's gonna be a keeper. See you in the shop when you pick up the new mag.

Virtual custom

Commerce is alive and well but it seems people aren't as interested in the 3D experience any more, a serious pile of presents just left the door all ordered from our online store. Apologies for the lack lustre post processing this has prompted but enjoy this little clip...

Stocking Filler Fodder

We just had a shipment of these...



They're £74.95! We have the blue, the yellow and the red. Look how much fun they are...



We have a few in stock but I'd hurry because there's been a lot of demand for these, they are a nice thing.

Award Winning (kind of)

It's pretty sick that your favourite local skate shop has this sticker in the window...



I think so anyway

Richard Brautigan

It's been a good week for reading in my world. Treacherous Weather has meant I've enjoyed these two novels, both of which I have only dipped into here and there. Richard Brautigan writes with both a wisdom and an innocence, I enjoy his descriptive language. "The old shack had a tin roof coloured reddish by years of wear, like a hat worn under the guillotine" Not so much happens in these novels but you enjoy the ride, equal parts tragedy and comedy at the core of each. You should give them a go...





He was an interesting and unfortunate character whose suicide note read simply "Messy, isn't it?" Perhaps a happier take on existence in his words to tie this up is "All of us have a place in history. Mine is in the clouds"

Ho Ho Ho

"party"

Christmas is looming, something anybody dealing with mail order at this time of year is acutely aware of. We've been working through them as the same amount again stacks up in the background, production line Elf style. One good thing this means is that the Christmas knees up is imminent and here is the thrice ammended flyer...



Hops would like you to ignore that question mark as he is confirmed. Suzi and Oli Mac sent me this, it isn't funny at all..



"What the heck!" is pure Napoleon Dynamite

Hard Rock Calling

It's only going to happen again...



The last one was such a good time...



It's sad the Big Man won't be backing this time around, this footage is a classic example of the party The Boss delivers. My advice is get a ticket.

Triiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil

You have probably seen the Palace Tres Trill video from the Battle of Normandy if you're in the skateboarding fruit loop. Urged on by Charlie's text of -why haven't you put the palace vid up?!! Here it is in all it's glory...



CANNON!
