So, I'm going to the States next year, I'll be travelling the West Coast, starting in Las Vegas. I can't wait, I'm really fucking excited to tell the truth. I'm going out there with my best friend. Our plan is to just fuck shit up really. That and meet awesome people, we will be doing alot of couch surfing, and lots and lots of drinking. I'm getting my knuckles tattooed too, pretty hyped about that.
Yeah.

You wanna hold on to my pet tarantula instead then?
This is a rework on my oldest, and one of my best customers! It was orginally done by Chris Connett, in the 80s some time. I wouldnt normally touch anything like this, I appreciate old tattoos too much, but seeing as he had the little blue flowers to cover a name afew years back I thought I should do it.
Im a huge fan of Chris's work, and most other real old school tattooers. Chris has been retired for around 4 years or so now, he stops by the studio now and again for a chat and a cup of tea. He was in today and I found my chance to ask him if he would be up for tattooing me at some point, he was more than happy, I cant wait.
Ya hurr me.
I tattooed a mates uncle on Tuesday. I met him years ago, he's completely deaf and I was kinda worried about how I was gonna deal with him when he got to the shop. Turns out he was awesome, real nice guy. We communicated by writing to eachother on bits of paper, it really was'nt as hard as I thought it would be.
Heres some of the paper I wrote on, I'm going to keep them. It was an experience.
Oh yeah I know my writing is fucking terrible, thats why I dont write for a living!
Loose Lips Sink Fish And Chips.
One of my oversea homies is travelling this month, his first stop is here, this pile of shit place! We're gonna hang out and talk shit, i'm going to tattoo him too. He emailed me telling me he had an awesome idea, a sailing ship with 'FISH AND CHIPS' in a banner, I told him it was the most badass thing I have ever heard, I cant wait to do it. I also am trying to get him to get the cigar too!
Rocknrolla.
I've been away doing stuff, I dont know why this stuff has stopped me blogging but it has. So here I am updating shit for the people (or person?!) that checks out this blog.
Gimmie some time.
