A lot of the time was spent playing PS2 games in the comfort of
my living room. Grand Theft Auto 3, in all it's mindless carnage glory, was a favourite, and Tony Hawks 3 was good was well
when a game of Horse was the urge. Not that we ever used the word Horse, though... here, Anti and Skids enjoy running over people.
When the bells rang out the dawn of a new year, and
such poetic pish, we of course were all very traditional and drank booze: but of course, George wasn't having a
ny of that, the straight-edge sod that he is. So we had to think of something hardcore to give him, and we found it:
straight concentrated blackcurrant juice served in an Aftershock shot glass, just like everyone else was drinking from.
Unfortunatly it can't stop him looking like a prat, so Davie is just turning away in this photo.
The others were a bit
mournful about the passing of the year, they didn't think it was a cool year or nowt. Well, I just told them
that I thought 2001 was great coz I got me some biznatch action then, and then I gave them the Slim Shady Salute.
George got a picture of it... man, I look cool.
Some pictures don't need a caption. This shot
of ma man Davie is just, well, genius and arty and stuff. Must have been some great guy that took this... oh,
that's right, it was ME, biznatches!
As those of you who live local like will
know, there was some serious ice going down on the 1st of January. Armed with my skater gear and that urge to
cause pain to ourselves that Davie and I share, the two of us managed to convince the others to indulge in some
icy antics. Here's Davie getting ready to ride down "Death Slide", a small hill next to my house that was
damn icy.
Here's Davie about to take the death
like plunge, with Skids on hand to ensure he gets a nice speed going. We want to see some Jackass quality
stunts here, man!
Davie didn't fail to disapoint.
He was, to quote George, "three picometers" away from slamming into this bollard before momentum took control.
Not that George would know anything about momentum or anything else physics like, but he would know about
groin inuries...
Simon might not look like the toughest hombre in the
world, but then if you guys watched enough Hong Kong films then you'd know that the quiet oriental guy is the
one that always kicks the most ass. He did the run down Death Slide next and got himself his own interesting
landing. The place was pretty cold, so alas George's damn pervert breath is blocking the screen somewhat,
but you can't have everything.
What can I say... I felt like some
craziness myself. It's my chair, my helmet and my damn Death Slide after all.
As if Death Slide weren't enough,
then we decided to throw ourselves down the action-packed icy wheelchair ramp of doom? Man, we're just too damn
cool... but can even we survive a stunt this crazy?
Like there was any
doubt, eh?.
More pictures shall follow... or maybe not, biznatches! W00t!
