Ok so Sacred Ink™
tattoo studio’s next tattoo convention is in Rotterdam.
It's at ahoy Rotterdam on the 9th and 10th of March 2013,
the 10th Being on Mother’s day which I totally forgot about :(
Sorry Mum I’ll make it up to you when I’m back x
I will be driving to Rotterdam again. Door to door time
wise it takes 5 hours, it takes longer to fly to Holland than to drive. 7 hours
flying 5 hours driving, work that one out! Again that’s door to door.
Get on at Folkestone on the Euro-tunnel then out the other end at Calais for
a 3.5 hour drive doing speeds of up to 130Ks an hour, and legally ;) They seem
a bit more relaxed in Europe about the speed limits than this nut house. Last
year was a busy event. I did some lovely tattoos. I’m hoping to do some
more again at this year event. Maybe I’ll get a spare hour to take a break have
a beer and maybe put one in a competition. Who knows let see what happens. One
of my Dutch regulars John Smit, who I done a tattoo for of Iron Maiden’s Eddie at the
Utrecht Tattoo convention will be making it to the show this year as he has put
in a request for me to draw up something for him and his missus. The
tattoos that I recall doing last year are some praying hands on some
American dude and then a flower on some sweet looking Dutch chick who is
hopefully there again this year.
On the Sunday I did a load of black and grey tattoos which I seem to
get asked to do a lot of. 2 days of solid tattooing
and a night of partying with a bunch of tattooists.
We were all put on a boat which chugged around Rotterdam, and it was all
you could eat and drink which was a nice touch.
So yeah, a good and busy time was had and I’m
looking forward to this year’s convention.
Though not the lonely five hour drive back to the motherland via a Belgium car
park due my wanky satnav…
