The day had been made better by a visit from this guy...



Rob met his match the other day when a long anticipated game of skate came around...

The morning

I have phases where a certain song gets rinsed ot in the morning with the window open. Paul Simon was on rotation for a good few weeks. Of late it's been this Jonny L recommendation...

The week in pictures

I'd talk in length about the hung parliament I understand increasingly little the more I found out about it. The Queen"s in charge right? Instead here's a picture of Gareth on the cover of Streetwear today...

Come follow me

Just noticed the Alley has another follower today, 51 now in spite of bottom of the Slam page relegation and banner minimising, not bad. Our news team is unable to bring you what is hot off the presses right now so I'll be filling in. We have the new Converse shoes everyone is raving about...



This Time Tomorrow is finally in and flying out so make sure to grab yourself a copy having watched this trailer...

Mark Ward
whose work graced our basement pre store installations...

Everything Must Go

My close personal Jewish friend Mr Toby Shuall...



Has for the last more than ten years produced the clothing line Suburban Bliss many of you know and love. Without it Luigi would have been naked from the neck down for the last five years. Due to unforeseen circumstances Suburban Bliss has been forced to come to a close. This is bad news, his brands evolution with it's experimental catalogues/newspapers/linesheets has been a staple in here and I don't see anything taking it's place as such a diverse showcase of artistic talent anytime soon. For those of you out there with a soft spot for Suburban Bliss clothing there is one very final positive you can take from it ceasing to exist. You have the opportunity coming up to fill your boots one last time. There is to be a sale where you can buy the last tees, sweats, hoods, shirts and jewellery you'll ever be able to get your hands on. I'm assured there'll be samples and other pieces that never made it into the shops so get your diaries at the ready...



and grab yourselves some bargains
