I'll be there on Sunday. What sort of time are we talking?, I could be there by 9.30, if this seems too early for others I might come via Harrow, which I haven't seen since the restoration. It's sort of on the way from Guildford...

It would be good for me- I'm in Swindon.
I have been going to Harrow as often as possible on a Sunday, meeting up with the middle-age-shredders....but they are a bit smelly and rough looking!

Watlington every sunday morning
On 7/16/2003 G7enn wrote in from (81.132.nnn.nnn)

I'd be there with the kids if I thought there was a good chance of meeting up with a few people. I'd probably make it once every two or three weeks at least. I love that bowl. I'd be up for it this sunday for a start.

Watlingtons just south east of Oxford sort of,quite mellow but fun peanut shaped bowl + quite nice metal half pipe [if thats your thing]next to it.
It's also a nice location for kids.

It’s near junction 6 of the M40 if I remember rightly. A mellow bowl affair, good for longboards. There are some nice pictures of it at www.middle-age-shred.com. Follow the link for “UK Skateparks” and then look under “South”.

You're probably all gonna tell me this already happens!
Oh well here goes.
Anyone interested in getting a regular sunday morning sess going at Watlington, nothing structured just a blast.
It's gotta be better than mowing the lawn.

Thanks for that Micheal, I took a look! I am still after an image that shows the main drag off the hill - It would seem Micheal is the only person who took pics??? UNbelivable! Hope there are more people out there to help me!

Old days down Southbank
On 7/14/2003 Andy Speirs wrote in from (81.131.nnn.nnn)

Mike Stride

Just bumped into a mate of yours Mat down the doctors, got talking about the old days and your name came up.

My brother and I used to go down to southbank in the early 80s. I remember going around in your black Mini complete with skate stickers on, blasting out Ghost Town by the Specials. How are you getting on?

Andy
