Skill to Sachi hairdressers (opp Halfords) who still did me a nice haircut even after I explained that I'd lost my handbag and had no access to bank cards or cash until my new ones arrived. Daniel was happy to trust I would return to pay when my cards arrive, which I will :)

I was standing looking where to dump a bit of carpet the other day and out of nowhere came a voice "carpet over there mate".
I'd vote for them, very good at their jobs.

So Stafford tip is well run, and I was very happy to see the air pumps in the town for pedal cycles. I actually can't believe Stafford Borough Council has got 2 things right in my lifetime :D

Where are the air pumps located? The only one I know of is at the train station (towards the end of Platform 1, next to the cycle stands).

One in Market Street (by the bike stands down the side of the Shire Hall) and one outside the Post House (by the bike stands there).

Don't know of any others.

+ One up by Caffe Nero.

I seem to remember the Swan having one in their car-park at one time, years ago.

the one we used was by the bikestands, opposite New Look. It took a while for us to work it out much to the amusement of all those having a coffee in the dodgy coffeeshop there! I didn't realise there were others apart from by the library so thanks Withnail!

How to send your customers away: Own the chip shop on the Sandon Road and
put a sign on the wall which reads:

"Menu of the day: Take it or leave it"

Guess what my choice was?

Massive skill big up to Heather at Inkpot Galleria. Had a tattoo done Monday of a black cat and 4 tiny paw prints. Why I didn't scream my head off I don't know, ones pain threshold is way below the foundations of any building.
I will attempt at some point to shove a photo up, tho me and computers don't really see eye to eye.
Once little Percy the perverted Puma is back on the road, I shall be saving like mad to get my next tat. So addictive!

Mine's only a little un. Cost £30. My other (blue rose) is smaller than what I've had done and cost me £57 about 8yrs ago. Had that 1 done at Raymondos in Stone.

I've looking to get my Studio Ghibli piece extended, I have a few ideas, but when I went into Vivid Ink to get Totoro done, non of them knew what I was on about....hmmmm didnt fill me with confidence, but Andre there did a great job.

Tempted to go into Inkpot and see what they think of my ideas....

If you have a design of your own, they are happy to use that, if it needs a bit of tidying up, as mine did, that can be done too. Next one is again going to be a blue rose, but a bigger one to cover up the one I've already got.

Mine will be adaptations of characters from Spirited Away & Laputa : Castle in the Sky.

As long as they know of Studio Ghibli, and show enthusiasm, then they'll get the commission :)
