Bangin' son!

Addictive like crack.

White Ladies. 29/11/08.

After a night in a pub, a bike ride for breakfast materials was in order to shake the cobwebs and rid my head of hangover. I knew we were going to White Ladies Priory and kept my fingers crossed that the mist would stick around until we got there.

Whiteladies has been here since the thirteenth century which makes it an old fucking building, and apparently Queen Guinevere came here after King Arthur died. Charles II came here too, but who believes in him?

Ste brought his Nagra along which caught some lovely stuff. 

The stuff that was recorded here was my favourite from the day. Bird scarers, shotguns, crows, and the noise of far away vehicles. Photos for your ears.

The stream here sounded amazing as well.

Hiatus, haters.

I wish there was a very good reason I haven't posted anything here for two months. A trip to somewhere, ten broken fingers, blindness. There isn't. I just got pretty fucking lazy and bored. Anyways, I don't have anything else to do this evening except eating squash risotto with chicken (please read the word risotto in Lloyd Grossman's voice) and get high on the sofa, and i'll go to bed guilty if that's all I do. So I'm going to again begin boring the four or five people I know who check up on this page with meaningless drivel. Heck yeah.

I finally have functioning cameras again so I guess some original posts are just around the corner, but until then I have found this assorted radness...

Enjoy.

Why?

On the way to the ramp found somewhere where someone had been having some fun.

Or something...

Vivian Girls.

Brooklyn Brooklyn. 

Front Smith Frontside Grind Front Disaster. DAMN.

Yesterday the ramp was graced by the Indy team. Well, The Bull was graced with the majority of the Indy team courtesy of The Wizard, and the ramp was graced with a one man masterclass by Haslam. Time to get back to school cause he was dossing around and still destroyed it in front of the terraces. Nice to see an A list skateboarder gettin Av It You Slag shouted at him by drunk midlanders.

So many people turned up and Ideal got their wrists slapped cause of the racket. I think the guys will completely accept it was more than worth it.

Bdog and Phil were in attendance with brews.

And we got to meet Grosso!!!!!!!!!

The day ended up as we always knew it would, with a many too many and a drunk ride/skate/train journey back to Wolves and horrific  M&S sandwiches. I felt so shit this morning..

Keep an eye on www.idealbirmingham.co.uk for footage, and to generally keep up on happenings at the best shop in the country. Once again, respecagnise Zip and Kris.

This is Billie Holiday, and she can sing better than you.

New Set-Up.

I have looked at this floor and this wheel for a good few hours this year, but at least for the next couple of months I am free from it.

The floor belongs to Steve who owns Graven Images tattoo parlour, and Steve is pretty good with a needle. Just had my arm finished and I am so stoked on how it's come out. Having a finished tattoo is a whole lot more fun than a half finished one.

Roll on the next one...
