Christmas in London!

I went back for the holidays and here are a few snaps...more to follow. I went to a tribute Smiths night and it was mental! The fans thought he was morrissey, even my mate Leila was freaking out, me and my dad just stood back and watched, it was a pretty fun night! The second day, just driving round saw this car thought it was a nice welcome back......(p.s) The last picture is how I was greeted at LAX by Roz...Loves her!!!

Almost forgot...

... MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!

Better Late Than Never

We have been well and truly slacking on the blog post front! December is a busy time of year, and the time you do find you have free is spent on your arse in a lazy kind of stupor... no? Just me? Well, Maroz has flown her self over to the mother land for the holidays so I've spent most of my time rocking back and forth in her room in the dark humming "All By Myself" to be honest. Hopefully the awesomeness of the following post will make up for it!

I've always been a firm believer that I was in fact born into the wrong era. I was actually meant to be living in California in the mid-70's, and these photos do nothing but confirm my suspicions...



I bought this book for my old man for Christmas and I'm already regretting giving it to him! It's called Locals Only and features many pages of these fine shots captured by Hugh Holland of the California skateboarding scene between 1975-1978. He was pretty chuffed with it! This is the kind of stuff he used to lust over as a skater at the same time in the gloomy confines of England. Oh well, I guess I'll let him keep it...
