a bmx update!!!!

got up at 7.30 on saturday to go digging because i had a line id been thinking about in my head all week and it was the first chance i got to go build it! today i got up a tad later got in a strop because no one else wanted to help me again, then at lunchtime they all redeemed themselves, came round and we got loads done. after bacon sarnies. see, we do actually ride bmx aswell... sometimes. still plenty more to be done, but summer will be a good one at the trails!

And it didnt end well, for paul anyways. i was alreet i say that very lightly, i say when you trip over your own shadow, your fucked!

This is paul and garry, GARRY, GARRY ELLLLLIS! the phone box got some abuse shortly after thsi was taken...

Told you

And paul vialated the streets, this is on the IDR kiddys 60mph cars, if they are going the speed limit......doubt it, kinda pissing into the wind on this one.

Then we bought some wine......leads to bad things.......

.....i told you....

like bigtime!

It all ended in some dancing for paul though, and probably one mega mega hangover!

that was a tame night guys, next one will be messy!

one love

Paton Here,

I have just worked out how to use this bloody site, and want to tell you a little story with a few photos i have managed to pull off my phone!

one night with me and paul = a complete and utter fucking mess!

Enjoy!

Well the night started tame, ready to go out, thought we would stop and a new little gem we had found called the moderation, used to be a pub where people either finished there pint and smashed it on the guy stitting to his right, or just eat it as a snack if you will. now it has need refurbed, quite a banging little joint.

And then we put puted on down to dans house, a normal drinking spot for us, just before we hit up towen, also where perry got fucking ruined before we got to town and shaved half his hair off. FACT!

Pavs, well yeh, we all meet here, not so cheap but good fun, no gash!

Another from pavs, its true name is Pavlov's Dog for this reason....

Yes, they are... giant dogs bollocks hanging from the ceiling. kinda an atraction?

oh dear god

this weekend has been fucking mega.

friday night: went into town, got wrecked up. taxi halfway home then found the bag of supplies we had stashed earlier on, this consisted of wine and jumpers. oh and a bottle opener.

the mission had only just begun.

lots of falling over, trespassing, scafffolding, roofs, getting livid at wingmirrors and stuck in bushes for silly amounts of time ensued.

got back to mine, cooked so much food and ate sod all. tried to call lisa but passed out with the phone in my mouth. rad night.

saturday: bigtime mess. stayed in at mine, got steaming and then went for a walk.

falling over walls, trying to run through fences, wingmirrors, 2 bottles of wine and a bottle of frosty jacks. we meant buissness.

and then there was peter... we found him falling out a taxi, befriended him and demanded he let us in for a gin and tonic. nice guy!

got back to mine, k.o'd on the kitchen floor and paton did the same with his head in the cupboard.

today: felt like shit

2008-11-21T10:23:00.000-08:00

so while drinking at the pub and telling some drunk guy called pete what he should text to some 'gorgeous' bird he 'met' on match.com, we decided to start a blog documenting our trails and the life we lead and the fun we have along the way. hope you enjoy...

or just got bitch on the come up about me x
