Crazy! Moved Dudes Sang And Danced All Night...
As you notice, this was a 2 week only public service presentation (a goddamn bloodywell cool attempt at an hi-tec internet communications experiment; courteousy Slobodan Bugger and 243 Collective). It has now been enjoyed feverous and before it is too late we ahev decided to take it down. Get it yourself if you want it.
Slobodan
ps. I will take my nonsense elsewhere and leave this for more important community announcements. CHEERS! ds

Ok, I think Chimp summed it up quite good:
"Saturday was Hackney Olympics. Ate a hearty breakfast with [...] my very good friend Herr P, who'd just arrived from Barcelona, then headed to the 'Bumps. We picked up a few teenage skate rats from the Viccy Park ramps on the way, stocked up on booze, and hit the 'Bumps with the temperature soaring close to 30 degrees. It was too darn hot to skate, so we painted a score board on the wall including various events like hi-jump and sausage eating, and got down to the olympic training of drinking lots of alcohol. a little skating happened, including me winning gold in a race around the park against the combined might of the Finnish/Russian, Swedish/Serbian, and German/Spanish teams, only to lose it straight away to the Serbian scum-bag due to an instant replay race. still, I clinched silver in that, so it wasn't all bad. We then made a group of kids on bikes race, but one of them, though always doing the best, also didn't want to play by the rules, and constantly lost his temper and bikes started to get thrown around! play by the rules kids! no point breaking them if you end up losing anyway! We sent Hackney Peralta into the wilderness to find a grill for the barbeque, while his P.Ness and myself located an old door, which was smashed into fire wood. HP came back with a wire fence, and with a bag of coals, some frozen burgers from the off-license, and shards of broken door as forks, we rocked the ghetto barbeque, and then slobbed out in the sun, watching the only under-weight girl in Hackney roll and chain-smoke foot long spliffs. No Nose brought his son, Saru abused the world with spray paint, Jam Jar fell on his face a lot, and we basically celebrated life on the Hackney Volcano.
later in the evening we had a film premiere in our studio, with Herr P's documentary "Three Foot Charlie" (a real beauty!) and Ichi's recently completed "Backstage Pass - A Visual Rockumentary" film. Everyone sweated and laughed and applauded the film makers skills, then we climbed up on the roof to get drunk, look at the huge moon, and play "Top 3's" with Slobodan Burgher, Serbian Douchebag."

And if you are still reading I would like to give some testimony too! It's Friday afternoon and I wanna go home and my memory will leave me soon so best put some ink on this screen right now before late is too early.
In Team Kaputt fashion, I spent Friday night drunk as a Ukrainian Cosack and that meant that when I woke up early as fuck on Saturday. No worries I have got some good guts of steele so no hangover. After making some initial phonecalls across the 243 telecoms-network we decided to meet up in Victoria park skatepark. Me and Sami hit the streets and on the way there I had some sort of cancerous attack and pretty much vomited, thus breaking even on the days first beer. Let the festivities began.
Viccy Pk was cool because I was kinda drunk when we got there, as I had 2/7 of a can of Stella on the way. But no shit, forget it mate. The first ollie over the 10 centimetre pyramid-runway thing almost ended up with some sort of braintumour but after that I was alright and managed to totally kill it. I am a real live-wire. Yet Chimp managed to pick up some kids and off we went.
The treak to Hackney Bumps was as usual conducted in timely fashion and as usual we totally bombed the minimal but very cool San Fransico hill. We were supposed (me and Sami) to get some sort of barbeque machine on the way but we sort of decided to ignored that. On the way to Hackney from Viccy, I was reminded of my childhood seeing all those little kids that Chimp had invited to the Olympics. Like at first I thought that for them the 5-10 minutes skate would probably feel more like a real treak. But then I realised how cool it was hanging out with the older skateboard guys when I was really young. I think some of them dropped off en route but those that stayed, I think, enjoyed it.
Ok, so we managed to get to Hackney Bumps via pit stop at the Off Licence. When we got there it was empty despite whatever efforts of 243 Collective to get people to show but that was cool because as me and Sami had said the night before was "why get all these douchebags to come and ruin our fun?". As usual the locals skated the youth club "street area" but they were very kind to bring their ledge for me to do manuals on. Cheers little buddies!
First action plan was to clean up the Dumps - I mean Bumps - which merry messers. Chimp and Senior Penis happily did whilst us more in tune with our masculine sides opened our first set of beers. Next up with the Hackney Olympics flag, add some Chimp spraypaint (where did you learn to make perfect circles dude?) and voila! The game was on!
This was early days and some spectators felt that there had been some sort of false advertising as to the advertised grill-party, and sought greener pastures (there was some other sports event on TV and it had something to do with some sort of Roneey or something or other). But the 243 collective did not waste much time and soon we were all very manly and sweatly. It was nice.
This is where my memory is starting to get patchy. I think I mostly skated for a couple of hours. More people showed up, all of the drinking, skateboarding or artistic types. It was happy days by now. The paint flowed, the wheels span (33,3 revolutions per kickflup) and the alcohol was plentiful...Sami won gold in Highjump comp (no surprise there! the little Finn is like a Yo-Yo!) and he successfully jumped thrice over a barrier with the little skateboard under the barrier or whatta hell call it hippe jump then...nice shit it was too...I think I managed to do some funky flipster tricks but it is not very important as it was more of a "style" event than a "trick" event...slams were good for all...errr...we got some hot dogs...and some kids were almost fighting...and...yes and then we all...no. I can't remember.
But hell, it was great fun and next year we will totally kill it again. As the little girl said as we left:
"See you next year!"
ps. I would like us to create a photo album from Hackney Olympics for www.243support.co.uk those that took pictures (that means you, Kabe243, Mikko J Fox, et alli) to upload them here in some nice sort of way or fuck ocgsa...ds
That would be all,
Yours best friend,
Mr. Slobodan BurgherKing, Ba, Ma, PhD

Dear 243 editorial team, I would like to correct that I won ?10 cash after betting for Lordi vs
Carolina "Slut" Haggvist in the Eurovision freak contest. Easy money.
I still do dishes as a man needs a purpose in his life. Otherwise I've been locked in a tower behind a sewing machine. Oh man
I think about those days when I skated like a pygmi with nothing else
to do except sniff glue with Gunnar and smoke crack with Borge. Borge
came to London and apparently Gunnar and Borge made out somewhere east
of Docklands. All in all i need a new pro deal for the 243 Sup category that enables
me to travel to GDR for some freestyle competitions. I also heard of
the hackney bumps Olympics and the apparent money prices for winners.
10K for a winner. sounds pretty amazing. Ok, so if Marten is gonna be
there he is a strong favorite to wrap it up, but we all know his comp
nerves + he's a crack addict and there's too much crack around in
HBumps. Then Tony. Oh man he's not gonna win it. And Dennis is in
Marocco, or is he just double bluffing? Hosoi is nothing and Alva is
too old. But then again there's Hackney Peralta with the shades to
kill so he might do it and Chump himself might be hiding a WW2 bomb in
his pants. So yeah, i guess i'll win it and the 10K + a BJ from an
oldtimer bum. But give me a hot dog and i'll sing you a song. sami.
