The veins tattooed on my left arm have been beefed up. Slight shading, more blue, tiny bit of black and some purple. Should look perfect. Took 2 hours. First colour (black) was easy, no pain. Purples were next and they stung a touch where they overlapped with the previous black. The blue was last and it crossed both sets of angry skin. Ouch it was esp on the inner elbow. Or maybe I’m a wuss :) Felt fine when there, came back and felt ill. As always. Even now some 5 hours later I feel ill. Not bad ill but as if I’ll wake up with the flu tomorrow.
Neil at abody (the tattoo studio) has an apprentice. She’ll not be tattooing for a while and seeing as my arms are now complete (bar a little colour top-up in the right arm) I’m thinking of taking her in a copy of Bartleby Anatomy and suggesting that my right calf could do with some action. I think the neck would be better but that’s an expensive place for a mistake. Should be free though and Neil could oversee. This of course depends on him and her and me so it may not come off. But it’s a thought.
Photos will be taken tomorrow in daylight and then in a couple of weeks.

And best of all they don’t want their site changing yet - http://abody.co.uk - and they have a vacancy for a tattooist.
