Trip to London?

On monday nigt we decided a trip to London should be had on the Tuesday, a quick look on the national express website and we had our tickets booked for 8.30am at just £12 each. Meeting at the busstop at 7.50 due to some people not being up we had to make a quick dash to the coachstation where we somehow got on the coach on time.
A seat each we all caught up on some Z's before arriving in London at 11.20


Our first stop was Burgerking with the help of some vouchers we all got a small snack to prepare us for the day ahead. Second stop, Carnarby street and the surrounding area where a few purchases were already being made.

Ace from 1Xtra duo Ace and Vis was spotted in Hideout by Shaun
DPMHI



We then hit up Covent Garden for the usual stussy, slam city, carhart etc etc
Some tourist shots across the milenium bridge where we were to meet Andy at 5.30 after he finished college

This was an attempt at the crouching grime pose
A trip to southbank to see the graf was stopped as the council has painted the whole place a grey/silver colour, this spots bin covered in graf since i started skating, hopefully it wont be staying like this for too long
Had a short walk across the waterfront then into macdonalds where we waited for Andy


When he finally arrived we chilled for a bit longer and haggled over some watches although none eventually swapped wrists

Andy took us to can carnival to see some of the Graf he previosly blogged about


Some of the pieces were nothing short of amazing



however some were not so good
We then ventured back to victoria coach station where we were due to depart at 9 oclock
Another stop for food
Purchases of the day:
Two pairs of much saught after trainers for me and shrig

Uniqlo selvedge for me
Carhart selvedge saloon fit pant for Shaun
3 Supreme waist bags

Bids are welcome
Overall a very good relaxed day with everyone coming home pleased with their purchases

Motto of the day: you only live once
