I had a few things stockpiled from eBay delivered at my Syston house.
First day there I went to go skating in Town. Wilko was on the bus to go to work.
Sam got on the bus too, but we planned that prior to getting the bus.
'Quay Page.'
Walker's ledge is kind of skateable again, but here's Lee doing a manual trick anyway.
Boardroom got hit up, just because it was so cold outside.
J-Mac came.
Behold my new camera! It's a Canon XM1 which I bought of eBay for an undisclosed amount of money. I arranged to meet the seller outside Boardroom to pick it up, but I didn't take a picture because he'd have thought I was a weirdo. I got an external light, crap fisheye and an amazing 80's Benetton bag.
RIP Leicester's only decent short steep bank- McIndian's.
The first of many Midland Sesh's happened that night,..
FRASER CAME!
So did Matt, with one of those awesome 'Nobody-knows-i'm-a-lesbian-esque' style slogan T-shirts.
Fraser is still massive.
Okay, so like 30 teenagers get shot and stabbed in London a year- yeah its horrible and that, but in Leicester, when a Badger gets shot it's considered 'sick' and makes the headlines.
I dropped by Wreake. Unlike the obviously staged 'next-to-Fraser' shots, Doig actually is a huge person.
I've missed these classic Wreake 'meals.'
Heres a photo of loads of people who's lives aren't as good as mine yet.
I was heading towards Goscote, so Chim walked to Branston's with me. Thanks Chim.
Stef Danvers still works there.
'Sk8ters suck off old pakis.' Awesome.
Matt came out for his first skate in about a year, wearing another awesome slogan T-shirt.
Dead Nuns filming in Goscote?
Eventually we got bored and played Halo 3 online at Callum's house.
The Plough got hit up.
Heres that picture of that guy and his sideways balls.
The jukebox got murdered.
I can't remember if this was the same day, but heres Craig anyway.
I've never met anyone in Subway who speaks English.
Callun works in Casino now.
Longest... Board set-up... ever.
Today we had some fat gang out skating.
Dead Nuns footage went down.
Porca baddamans.
Jonny was gonna nollie varial heelflip this but it rained.
Rain was the least of our problems when it started hailing.
Once town was destroyed by hard rocks of ice, I met Adam at the Midland. Again.
These are my Nephew Dominik's amazing paintings.
Rambo 4 matey.
Next day- more snow?
This is the view from my Gran's house.
Here's Dominik.
That's my Sister with the classic 'shocked enthusiastic towards toddlers' face.
Things just got a bit silly in the end.
That's more like it. THE MIDLAND.
Arron was undefeated at pool.
Heres Wilko sitting on Matt's Motorbike.
We wanted to continue to drown our livers, but Bargain Booze was closed. On a Saturday night. at 9.30pm.
Roberto's Pizza wasn't though. I'd later sell Wilko one slice of my pizza at the total price of the whole thing.
Back at Joe's, Callum got double DDT'd, Armbar Boston Crabbed, Figure Four Leg Locked and almost Samoan Dropped. Oh and he got Speared too.
Some massive sink.
More non-skating activities for today then.
This is where Syston skatepark will be.
The curb that spawned the beginning of NLT.
Check Callum's NLT coloured Halo man.
The next day it snowed again, but I couldn't bare more Halo online with Callum. Me and Gant went out anyway.
We met Jonny and Craig at that kind of undercover part of Co-Op.
It sort of dried up, so I reunited with Basi and the Goscote Clan at Wreake.
Old school Syston days- Council.
Kieren and the Humbo gang turned up unexpectedly. This is the healthiest Syston's skate scene has looked in years.
More Midland.
This day was the Melton comp. Clark drove some of us down.
Jonny only just woke up.
