was trying to be 'sensible' but it goes against my nature...

sparks from spds+concrete as I crashed was good, I like that look!

Stelle - was impressed and intimidated in equal measure by your ability to crash out brutally and get back in the game so quickly...especially when some of the crashes were so close to a 5 storey drop!

great games last night folks, estelle its a good thing i know you so well, otherwise i'd be like .."who's the fucking bruiser on the pista?" a particulary nice head on collision we had too, the 'ooooof' that came from both of us was echoed by the spectators.
nice one joel, evan, robb, hops, dt, trevor, em, alison (hello). Aiden where were you? I 'spotted' you on the way there, so close yet so far away...
we own the night. and were getting good too. Jonny i felt all limp when i saw the lack of copacepitism... ;(

Choose the mallet, and you will join me
Choose the ball, and you join your team... in defeat
You don't understand my words, but you must choose
So... come boy, choose life or death.

car park should be on places, and time should be on top. to play you have to have won at least 3 Olimpic gold metals in the sport of theives. if you have enver been shamed by a bronze then you are not allowed to attended.

Yeah, I'm in for tonight. After a few weeks of missing polo, I feel it's time to hurl myself and my new bike to the ground a few times.

On the way back from Brick Lane on Sunday through Lewisham I found another SE spot that looks great for dicking around on bikes. The Quaggy Ball Park on Lewisham Road junction with Orchard Hill. Fenced in floodlit at night and open 24 hours. The wavy thing casting a shadow at the bottom of the satellite view is a 50 foot long bench for spectators
