Stoked!

13 years since Bingo passed- I’m posting this in stoked because I wasn’t sure where to post about this, and for some reason posting in ‘pointless topics’ or ‘not stoked’ didn’t seem like a nice thing to do, but this morning I just thought about all the rad shit he put me on and the support and buzz he had for so many and I’m about to go to work but then off on a skate weekend straight after and just got fired up thinking about memories of him and how hyped I am to skate as it’s been a busy few months. So yeah stoked to wake up and think about bingo. RIP my bud we all miss ya

Bingo would be stoked on you mate, seeing you go from a youngster to what you have achieved.
I remember going to meet him at Wastelands and him pointing a young you out to me for the first time, with only good things to say.

Miss you Bingo R.I.P.

My Mrs lives in Vannes. My work don’t mind me being in France some of the time. My boss is so dope.

So we swap being in the U.K. and France, her job is similar they really don’t mind where she is, just has to drop into the office in Paris occasionally.

My tenancy is up in August so will see what happens!

Patelvis used to play a place near Sandbach I used to pass on the way home bitd. There may be more than one though…

Fuck me, not sure I’d be down tbh. Just want to eat my mixed grill/madras and chat to my Mrs TBH :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Elvis impersonators creep me the fuck out

I never get why they dress as old, fat, sweaty, drug riddled Elvis and not in his 24 year old, dating 14 year old Priscilla prime?

Copenhagen flights booked. 4 of us have successfully negotiated a break from domestic responsibilities for 4 nights to go skate all day in celebration of a mate’s 50th.

Fingers crossed it doesn’t coincide with The Open, but even if it does :person_shrugging:

I thought it would be fairly obvious to be honest :wink:

Got through a couple of tough months at work, so as a thank you our boss treated us to a slap up pub lunch and couple of pints.

*Everyone - not just me!
