Honorable Mentions: Farnborough contest ranks are 1st - Danny Webster, 2nd - Sean Goff, 3rd - Barry Abrook, 4th - Phil Bourgoyne, 5th - Steve Douglas. Sean Goff skated in Pajamas. Douglas didn't want to feature a ton of U.S. spots because you can get that in Transworld or Thrasher. Center fold page is upsied down on this copy, I righted it in the online version. Gutterslut... Gregor Rankine on going to the US and learning the word "stale", Brian Shaw is a thief. Ad for Rough Trade records.

Local Slang: Grems, Puffs, all of it really. I could barely understand Gregor Rankine's interview.
