This pic says it all. 24 hr skateday started here. It was full of exitement, fear, needing a piss, laughing, shouting, sitting on things, rain, racism, getting lost, singin dead loud, bailing in the dark, finding a place to watch the sunrise, meeting new people, sleeping, nearly crashing, "hey baby girl you say bling bling?!?!?", drinking, eating, laughing, photos, filming, tri-pods, reversing, u-turns, sunglasses, driving, smoking, arguing, wanting a shit, betty, hammy, screwy, d10 mediterrainean spray, "naaaarrrr bluuud" etc etc etc...and then a little bit of skating.
it started like this......
Akko cleverly outwitted everyone and bought a flask with him. We had a pre-midnight tea sesh. yum yum!
This was just the basics of our equipment bag. there were more treats int he car booty!
Everyone crowded round in exitement about to set off on our expeditions!
Checks snaked me and made his own t shirt (not really har har. i had to put that in cause i might have gave him an anneurism)
James was wearing a mighty ducks hat. i dunno where it came from but still.
and jim was just lookin so G all weekend it was unreal.
Tommy wilson got his beaut of a cam out for us
We had shit loads more food than this packed into the boot. We still havn't ate/drank it all. and it was all for under a tenner. 2 quid each GET IN!
The group photo. Finally everyone on imagine was together for once. HOORAY!
This was our first spot...safeway rail. Not really, it was just a quiet spot to film our intro. which is really good bitch.
We drove alllll the way to burton and arrived at like 2 o'clock after stopping at many d10 mediterranean spray petrol stations and asking for directions. There was this one guy at one of them that was signing this girls boobs. when we asked if we could sign too he diddnt really know what to say. i think he was quite scared of us to be honest. we left him to quiver in his boots.When we arrived at burton there was a druggie van there that turned ou to be a cool graffiti van full of cool and safe skaters who informed us that this area at this time is notorious for asian gang activity and that there were several nasty assualts in this area recently.
However, it diddnt stop us all skating and shredding. We just got out Batty, Hammy and Screwy (the bat, the hammer and the screwdriver) and skated with them for protection against the d10 mafia.
Although a car with two d10's did turn up and start ringing the rest of their families (probably) so both parties decided to leave. We did drive past our new friends later on though on our sunset quest.

There were mad alien light beams attacking the car whilst we found an abandoned (or possibly just closed) petrol station/place to hide from the D10 mediterrainean spray gangland.
There was a lot of love in this car. Maybe too much i dunno. I think we got the balance right...
although the car steamed up from it all.
This was whilst stood on an electrical box searching for somewhere to film the sun coming up...
"christ this morning air is making me need a piss, i might do one stood on here..."
"best not dan, electrical box yano..."
or something like that. then we bombed a hill. running.
finally we found this farm with a hill and a view and missioned onto it at about four morning and set up the equipment. Akko stayed guard at the car drinking his tea and watching over nay and jim as they slept. Bless em. We have no photo of that though as i was too busy waiting for the sun to rise.
i was lost to the ghost mist that was there.
Me and Pyk filmed the sunrise at about 4ish
I got this lovely shot
Then when it got lighter we went back to the park and i tagged this for one of the challenges.
and now this bit is where we filmed and didnt take photos so the next pic is us ready to leave after our sesh due to rain...
What time is it?
about half six...
Shit! Lets get to Milky Beans!VROOOOM SCRRREEECH!
Nay, Ollie that bench!
SWEEEET.
and if you look closely you can see it PISSING IT DOWN!
Then everyone was hungry so we drove for AGES looking for somewhere to eat and eventually we found refuge in a MacDonalds and got treated nice cause of our accents. Or possibly just because EVERYWHERE ELSE IS NICER TO PEOPLE THAN FUCKING NOTTINGHAM! I MEAN, FIRST CLASS SERVICE IN MACDONALDS! C'MON!
We had the biggest laughing fit about a plaque burger in there. i still cant eat stuff when i think of it...
We just found a carpark to cotch in after our Mac D's cause we were well nakered
and this car is really not comfy for five irratble people 
The last cotch before we made a move 
Aw bless the sleepy boys 
with Akko sat bat (shotgun really. but we diddnt have a shotgun we had a bat instead so that was what you had to call it ok?), we made our way through weird villages and this seemed more of a warning than a street sign.
This village needed to get its priorities right. This pub was just round the corner from the Smelly Fadge, which was a small, family-run restaurant. Seriously.But we did find this mother of a natural bowl! and so we got the old skool out!
God gave Pykett another deck for skating it so well.
The last photo before we headed home, nearly crashed by monging out at the wheel, hit a service station for a KFC, filmed the outtro to the video and then went to bed. At fucking last.
