My friend Mark came to visit me from LA and forced me to pull some of the boards out of the shed and lay them out in the drive. Seeing how many boards I have needlessly acquired made me feel a little embarrassed and self conscious, like when your mum pulls your box of Penthouse magazines out from under your bed and stands there and says 'what's the meaning of all this then!"

ReplyDeleteMarty.
you are a sick puppy...help is just around the corner, the next garage sale or swap meet...ha ha
ReplyDeleteHee hee, I loved your analogy of Mum finding the stash of Penthouse. I only have a 7 board quiver - ride them all - and STILL feel like that with certain people who ask why I need that many!
ReplyDelete"WOW", Great pic ! looks like a 'BIG-BOYS' lollie-shop !!!. Don't feel at all embarrassed, If I emptied my shed and did a photo like that, it would very, very similar to your shot !!! ....Mmmmmm !, Think I might have to get em all out for a photo for you to post !!!! Cheers !
ReplyDeleteSweet, suppose it's a good thing that u don't collect longboards as well.I would be totally in awe.Looking forward to seeing some of the punters putting there stash on show.Love to be a fly in Mockie's shed.
ReplyDeleteCool collection , counted 56 or so. My mates want me to do a photo of my stash , But if tha misses (who stopped counting at 100) see's them , she will know my actual total , The wife's old saying (NO MORE BOARDS) ,But The Husbands old comeback (I HAVE HAD IT FOR AGES) Don't give them a chance to start catching you out !!! Just ask if those are new shoes they have on!!!! Hide all tha new one's with tha old one's
ReplyDeleteWill post a photo soon ... PS have tha leopard board from Puberty Blues one tha wall , Will put it in tha shoot
TA ANOTHER MAD COLLECTOR
