Friend sent me this photo which might be my phone wallpaper forever.
Huf was so rad. Such a unique skateboarder. One of a kind. Power and finesse. Did so much for so many people it seems. Never ever heard one bad thing about him.
People always talk about his FTC and Non Fiction sections but I always thought his part in Real To Reel skating to Heart was banging too. That line he does at 3rd and Army at 1:12ish is not humanly possible.
RIP Keith.
Exactly!
Damn, fuck cancer.
They should offer him a plane ticket to the berries anyway.
Fantastic. We’re now doing the covid test shuffle, blatantly won’t be able to get a test before the isolation period is through
Booked an doctors appointment yesterday and they said I’d get a call back from them by the end of the day. As they didnt call back I spent 2 hours and 57 phone calls trying to get through to the reception this morning only for them to tell me the doctor tried to call 3 times yesterday.
I did check they had the right number and pointed out that I didn’t have any missed calls on my phones log. ‘Please try again tomorrow’ was the advice they could offer.
I’m so pissed off.
Went to my dad’s house today after a long time.
Place is a shambles.
Needs new guttering put up everywhere.
Kitchen is fucked.
No TV.
Looks as though he hasn’t been looking after himself.
Of all my siblings, I’m basically the only one who really has any interaction with him.
His own siblings don’t care and his only lifeline is the pub.
I’m going to have to try and sort this all out on my own.
Fucking pissed off.
Went to bed at 6.30pm to try and avoid thinking about the connotations of it all.
Just woke up.
Bollocks
Went through kind of similar things. It wasn’t easy.
Don’t waste too much energy feeling angry or guilty and try to keep your head up.
Don’t let it ruin you, there’s only so much you can do (but do it).
That’s shit man but as Franc said, it needs to be done.
Personally, i’d be calling out the family, putting them on the spot, forcing a big meeting, causing a fuss. If members are shunning then they can get fucked. It’s o much easier for people to ignore it and think someone else is dealing with it, but if they are told to full story it should stir some empathy with most people, then at least you’re not on your own and getting stuff done. Anyone who does not help has to deal with their own guilt eventually.
Obviously, I know nothing of your family dynamic and it’s easy for me to say, but imagining the same scenario with my family, I know exactly how it would play.
Sorry to hear that. How’s she doing now?
Hope she gets through it with nothing major. My missus has MS and works at the hospital as well so obviously this has been a concern for us too. It seems to be that generally people with MS aren’t at greater risk from coronavirus than anyone else. Still going to be a worry, though.
Fingers crossed it stays that way
Dishwasher broke. It broke before a cycle, not after finishing. So now I have to empty it and wash everything manually, like some sort of caveman. Lame
Best wishes Max
My Mum was talking about that today it’s near where I live I think.
So awful
Just fully recovered from a quad strain. First skate in three and a half weeks and I fractured my scaphoid. I hung up trying to manual a concrete box/ledge and got thrown over to the other side. Some falls just happen so quick you dont have time to roll out properly.
Haha, I’ve been thinking I ought to go out and film something just to prove that I could actually skate once. But I also feel like I could easily have a life-changing accident on a kerb.
Filmed a street clip last week. Shocked myself haha.
