Crouchend and Chingford early 90's

[Simon Hatcher]

Hi y'all,
          Its been a long time (15 Years!!) bit it's great to hear Cleggy and all the Crouch End & Chingford (SK8 & BmX) lot are still active. I am a Gill boy, I used to sk8 a big ole Blender with another Gill old timer Pete F. (The guy who organised the last Gill day in 87. sob sob).Does anyone remember me? I moved to Italy in 91'for several years during which i broke my knee. Its good to be back!
At the moment I am skating down in Broadstairs with another Gill boy (Toby) green hair remember??. I've great memeories of all the palace lot Neil,Dean,Robbie,Phil,Shane and of course Rodga and Matt B. at Latimer.

Would be great to session vert with everyone again but where ?? Could Harrow be an option or are people already skating vert elsewhere. Me and Toby would be up in a shot..

Hope to hear from you soon Simon.

Clegg thanks for the lifts from Hill's to croutch and chingford!

I was minor league so probably not on your radar, but Croutch was our not so local local (many a happy weekend and school day) and Chingford was a mighty journey down the north circular on too many busses.

Anyone remember Borris?

I used to skate Chingford years ago. I remember teaching some kid called Pete Dosset how to do fakie ollies, and then about 2 weeks later he was better than me. I remember Paul breaking his ankle, and riding the ramp in a plaster cast. And one of the locals had a company called Anarchic Adjustment, that imported gear and designed t shirts and sweatshirts...
