spring palms

arrived in palms springs today came to hang out in the sun and soak up some well needed sun rays, with is pretty much all palm springs has to offer besides loads of old people and a dodgy statue of sonny bono. we did run into a mcCain fan however that tried to give us sweets and get us into his car, thankfully we got away.

new server

just to let all you kind folk that have been emailing us know what's going on. our website has been down because we're moving it to a new server. we had maxed out the bandwidth on our old server and had pretty much run out of disk space so it was holding us back from uploading some new content we've been working on. we should be back to normal by the end of the week and then when anthony gets back from fannying around in the states we'll be starting work on a pretty major new project that will be revealed soon. keep ya peepers peepin.

san the fran

san francisco is amazing maybe the best city in the world, after norwich of cause. we staying in a really great hotel on mission street which has a roof terrace with an amazing view of the downtown skyline. did some shopping down haight street, looked at so much vintage clothing that my nose started to bleed, it did stop bleeding though when i ate some of the best pizza haight street has to offer from escape from new york. also saw a cat sitting on a dog hanging out with a rat which made me remeber this. went down the tourist trap that is pier 39, wanted to go watch the stinking sea lions and watch tourists pose for photos.

last minute madness

today we had a last minute rush around to buy all that we needed for slamm jamm, sam kept insisting on looking at all the capes in the fancy dress store which wound me up a treat which later led me to throwing my shoe and having a fit. we also swung by the sex shop were we witnessed some couple buying a strap on and a huge tub of lube, while their little kids played with the dildos and vibrators which were on display, really disturbing. anyway hopefully see you at slamm jamm if not you have to wait till we get back for an update, bye now.

carpet stains & roof top games

had another photo shoot for bespoke today, i had to wear some pretty wild stuff this time but luckily they had an endless supply of brewskis to wash the old inhibitions away. loz got pretty exited about a sweet cape he had to wear and actually wet himself. i've been carrying a hot off the press dirt box vinyl around in the hunt for that special place to put the first one. it's like the first time you have sex, you spend ages looking for the best place to put it and then you end up getting drunk and sticking it somewhere you regret. dave gets bored easily and started making us see how high we could make a foot stain on the white walls in the changing room, he got really competitive and won by miles although i was doing it mid outfit change and in nothing but my pants so i think the fear of the little man popping out hindered my performance a bit. we ended up finishing pretty late and there was an amazing view of the city out of the studio window, you can't tell in the wanky photo but there is a river and a full moon to compliment it.

DIY bitch

my sister has bought herself a home so ive been elected to be tool time tim for the last few day, all good fun and games till curtain rail fall down. luckily my mother is over visiting so she's been helping hold thing up while i use the tools provided. lesson i've learned the last few days: when in doubt guess and pretend you know what your doing, when it all goes wrong blame someone else. these rules can be applied to everything in life so copy paste and if anybody asks blame jack.

grande frappe

i've been hanging out with lee today. we went to dose up on coffee and catch up, then had a look around some old record stores in search of some original joy division vinyl but had no luck. on the way home we had a quick little skate at the local training ground and all the kids were asking where anthony was. he's got fans everywhere nowadays.

i love noodles

today we reaped the benefits of free air and water then headed to great yarmouth to reap the benefits of dim lit, dusty ramps. after our little session we wandered around the big tesco and made friends with the locals, i also found the pens i have been looking for in ages which made me really happy so i bought a bottle of wine to celebrate.

"jimi blue" available now

the new "jimi blue" is available on the dirt box shop now. there are also some scarfs and beanies to help you through the winter months. you might have noticed a few changes on the site lately, you'll be pleased to know there are plenty more new pages on the way so keep looking around. enjoy the behind the scenes photos below, the studio we use has some amazing backdrops. we found one that looks like you're standing in an alleyway taping clothes to garage doors, suited us down to the ground...which was covered in fake moss.

cactus jack bums back

there are a lot of freshers about in norwich roaming the streets drunk and excited to meet and greet everybody, however there is one person they don't want to bump into. BEWARE freshers the infamous cactus jack is back, he may seem friendly, young and innocent however as soon as you let your guard down jack will attack you with his cactus penis and try to put it in places where cactai should never go. you have all been warned, now drink safe and remember cactai are not toys and they are not just for christmas.

award winning director dirt box

we got an email from youtube today congratulating us on being their 90th most viewed director this week. they didn't say when the award ceremony will be but we'll probably just do one of those prerecorded ones anyway so i guess it doesn't matter. we don't want to sound ungrateful as number 90 is a big achievement but we think those guys over at the bbc are getting a little smug; so if you watch all our videos again a few times this week then perhaps together we can take over corporate media in the uk. just think how nice it would be to watch pooping elephants and super 8 of circus while eating your breakfast instead of terror attacks and credit crunch updates. just remember together we can make the world a better place via our youtube page...vote fred

design tourettes

we've been working on some updates for the website today and discovered anthony has design tourettes. when he's talking and try's to write something he just ends up writing random parts of his conversation, below is a picture of what happened while he tried to write "shop" in the middle of a conversation. the best thing is it took him ages and he had got it looking exactly how he wanted before he realized the little typo. i've been busy doing some market reasearch for a new beverage of the week and as lee would say "we have a winner" in the form of the "old rascal" which is a proper foxy oak aged cider and tastes amazing.

tubby telly

loz made a trip back to the fine city tonight for the opening of a david burrows & simon o'sullivan art show at outpost. i went to meet him and after the show we went to some of his old haunts where he maintained his mj style reputation by pulling shapes out the bag everywhere we went. we ate some dead stuff and then parted ways. it was good to see him again, i think he's secretly missing his home turf. if you're reading this loz make sure you come down for the halloween fireworks of death show with fire pit party on the beach, we don't know where or how we're going to do it yet but it's gonna be a flaming* good night.
