Here are a few pictures of Cantelowes at it's current state, rumor has it that the park will be completed by the 20 November, which means they still have to close down the existing part to build the rest of the street area.
This week has seen a lot of new arrivals in the shop, including Indy pool ashtray, Anti Hero Finger gloves and lots of new wheels, decks, tees, jackets and hoodies. If you are interested in any of the products please ring the shop.

Went to the Phil Frost exhibition at Elms Lesters Gallery (near center point), really good show check it out if you have the chance and what can I say Phil Frost is one of the nicest people I've ever met cheers for doing the T.
...................... What an interesting day, got to meet Mark Gonzales at DPMHI due to his up coming exhibition/release of the Communion Priest toy which blows bubbles. He ended up doing a Tuesday one which was really cool, I like to thank everyone at DPMHI for the day. There will be some DPMHI product available in the shop soon.
The Cantelocals had a meeting last night to talk about the street area, there was a small turn out but highly productive. It was nice of Badger to come along and give some good advice, the main concern of the evening was that a bank was going to be placed at the entrance of the park to be used as a roll in with a rail on the side, but as the park is on a slope there is no need for this and the run up to the rail is far too short, so hopefully the council and contractors will agree in not building it and place a block of some sort instead. All in all the park is still looking to open at the end of November which is not too far away. The night was ended in true Tuesday crew style with Hareth, Victor & myself going skating at Sainsbury's carpark with manuals & boardslides galore.
Well its seems like the contractors are finally working hard up at Cantelowes, just hope the rain will ease off for the park to be open at the end of the month.
