Great to see people posting in their native lanugage. now all we need is a translation engine so that you can see all the posts in your own language.

Keep it global.

Thanks Fred!

A 'Babelfish' is a fictional telephathic universal translator from a piece of science fiction called 'A Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy'.

It is also a language translation website which usually works quite well.

Afternoon all, suns shining here and der tarmac is dry. Best injury? well a fat lip from mrs longboardbuddha for putting dents in her new fridge door during a skate session in the kitchen. To go with the other injuries from destroying the living room contents with solo moshing and stage diving sessions. ooops

SSofS - Rich, sorry to hear about you loosing your job mate. I'm on the dole too, guess .com turned into .gone.

Boardfest if looking good, I can't ride at the moment, I've got a wet weather related skate injury. I smashed my toe into the corner of a door while riding barefoot around my house ! ! My little toe is black and hurts like hell. More Bollocks. When will it ever stop raining?

Anyone else got any 'stupid' skate injury stories ?

I made it as far as Coulsdon from Brighton and turned back. TOO WET .... TOO MISERABLE! I think I've skated 4 times since I got back from the states last July.

I wish I was skating with the SoCal boyz at Roosters today. Those west coast guys don't know how lucky they are!

we were thinking of going to Palace this weekend.
Jonathon said the BMW marketing crew wanted to try out their
funny board so we might have one of them to play with.
....if it doesn't rain.
See you all in Sheffield if not.
