New School

Let me tell you a little about myself. Im Nick(voice of the people) the bubble. I was born in Perth in Western Australia and travelled back and forth to Nottingham in the UK right up until a few years ago when I decided to make the move to London.
I previously had a thing going promoting and running dance parties and raves (lets be sure not to confuse the two), as well as presenting a radio show on RTRfm in Perth for a couple of years. Doing that made me realise thats what i want to do with my life. Minus the assisted sleepless nights and lack of pay of course. So that was another reason for my travelling 12000 miles across the globe. Well, that and the parental units and my mums entire family. As time progressed, I realised drum and bass and hardcore werent getting the juices flowing. Luckily my other favourite type of music was Motown, so i started to listen to plenty of the stuff. Then I moved into soul, ska , boogaloo and jazz and started dressing more sartorically than i ever had before. To this day im not happy with my threads and you may often see me hunting for some decent schmutter in various places around London.

In 2004, roughly when the promoting and the show were kicking off, I met Geri. She is my definate better half and soul mate. She came with me on my journey for two years but alas has had to travel back to Perth. There is still a large part of me with her and I know that wherever I may be she is out there thinking about how she can keep me on the straight and narrow! heheheh

In 2005 I joined Bar Italia Scooter Club. Based in Soho, the club is there to accomodate anyone with a classic geared scooter or at least a love of them and we always have new and curious riders pop along and join our weekly rides. In August 2006, the mantle of President was handed over to myself by the founder and current President, Al. While the club remains true to its roots, we are branching out and making sure we get about nationwide with summer scooter rallies and weekenders in the pipelines. I couldnt do this without my trusty steed Rubi (1964 Vespa VBB2T with a PX 150 engine and 10 inch wheel conversion for you fellow vespisti), whos pics you will see as time progresses.

Right. Thats that out the way. Its 2007 and seeing as my last blog site cant be accessed, or deleted for that matter, ive decided to go and create a new one, complete with random pics and stupid thoughts for the day. Just like the last one!
to view the other, inferior and quite frankly disorganised blog (but with ace pictures), go to http://movin_and_groovin.blogspot.com

Enjoy the site and I hope to see you about sooner or later in one way shape or form.
