Skip Diving
So I went to Nicks dads warehouse/factory thing yesterday, turned up and Riki was there too. They were so excited cos they just got a whole bunch of free shit from the people next door that were moving out. Pulled it out of the skip they had. Got belt sanders, jigsaws, boxes of electronic components. Tables, desks, all sorts. And a whole box of alcohol, like wine, gin, woodstock and stuff. These guys were throwing everything! (no kitchen sink, but there was a toilet seat.)
They’re setting up the factory as like a private workshop for the various hot rods they have and our cars etc etc. Got an engine hoist and they’re getting a car hoist and stuff.
We’re rummaging round in these boxes, and I find a freaking lan cable tester! I’ve wanted one of those for ages. Riki says he’s going to go look through the skip again. So I go with him, and we’re sorting through this skip like a bunch of homeless people, I found me a ethernet card still in its plastic bag. Was mean!
Riki grabbed a whole bunch of clothes out of there as well. Then the guy comes out and hands us this stereo, so we got a couple of bags of stuff. Go back inside cos its raining and Riki’s like “LOOK I GOT SOME PANTS!” and puts on these bloody suit pants overtop of his jeans and starts parading round.
Then nick rips open this other bag, full of suits and suit jackets and shit, so suddenly it turns into a fuckin formal occasion. Sorting through stuff and playing with a big industrial gas heater (like a jet engine), and moving mechanics stuff around in suit clothes. Was random as, we must have looked like such dicks.
So then we took off, van convoy (riki’s, mine and nicks), drove past Becky who didn’t see us at all. Went to the club still in suit pants, and Riki was still flaunting his suit jacket. Got pretty messy after a few jugs. Everyone was down there, Bo, Brad, Shane, Mike, Andy, Joel. Nick’s old man turned up later on with Shelly and Becky, which was awesome. Drinking with that guy is funny.
Stayed pretty late, we were the last ones there and they wanted to close up, but we still had like 3 Pantera songs on the jukebox to go.
Brad tried to do a slide on the way out but spun right around cos his tyre was flat.
Driving back to Caltex for some munchies, Nick and Riki are in the front with me driving, and there feet and hands fucking everywhere – on the roof, windscreen, Riki’s sprawled out trying to knee nick in the face, Nicks grabbing my head trying to pull it into Riki’s crotch and shit. Then Nick finds a can of black spraypaint and starts painting my windscreen! Riki’s yells something incoherent and starts getting his feet in there rubbing the paint all over the place.
We get to Caltex and I’m like fuck it, *handbrake slide*, round the corner into Caltex.
Manged around at Caltex for a bit, then went back to nicks and slept.
