Feckin' Truck Drivers!!!!
They're bloody dangerous! I should know .. I am one. This is a very long story so I'm not going to tell it. Suffice to say that after having had a pretty busy working week I failed to notice a low bridge sign and drove my 44 tonne articulated lorry into it. The resulting carnage took 6 hours to clear up. Trains were diverted (it was a railway bridge) and I managed to stop an armed robbery too (another VERY long story).

The lorry was smashed to peices, turned on it's side and spread over 1/2 a mile of road (which ended covered up in deisel too) I had to kick the windscreen through to get out and walked away with a grazed ear.

I would like to appologise for all other lorry drivers ... our bosses make us do silly ammounts of work - we're not all twunts.

(That week I spent 127 hours behind the wheel - I wish this was an exageration, but it's not)

» Evidence that you're getting old

ill-advised skating excursion...
friday night, in the pub. myself and friends decide to go to the skate park for some fun the next day ... come the next morning i'm stood at the top of the ramp with a crippling hangover and the youngster stood next to me looks at my deck and asks for a look... "how old is this mister?" says the young scamp. i look at my skateboard and think back to when i bought it, then i look at the youngster. "hmmm, it's older than you are son" says i. i confer with mates. we shuffle off to find a nice quiet pub and think about what we've done.

the kids were much better than us anyway, and besides, having a nice pint in a cosy pub is better than hurting yourself on a halfpipe sureley?

» Obscure Memorabilia

I have a few bits of concrete
They're grey and crumbly and one of then has some green spray paint on it. Doesn't sound like much but they used to be part of the Berlin Wall.
