Rob Karloff Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 That's right folks, it's ready to go! Come have a look see... Lots of never before seen stock out on the vast amounts of shelf space. New, bigger, purpose built piercing and tattooing rooms! Across the road from the old shop, in case you haven't already noticed... The bright green and pink paintjob is kinda a standout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Karloff Posted April 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 Hellfire?! Get real, it's much better... The new piercing and tattooing rooms started life as a big storeroom with a bunch of shelving in it a month ago. Between us all it's had a new ceiling, been partitioned into two rooms, wired for lighting and power, had ventilation installed, been painted, plumbed and fitted out. Wow!Today was very smooth and trouble-free, thank god. We're all in need of a holiday tho! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 I'm guessing the reason for the move was more shop space, since the distance wasn't very far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_beastly_one Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Am I the only one who thinks the left side (looking from outside) is a little too spacey? Like, so spacey that it makes the shop look empty? But I don't know, they're probably intending on filling it up gradually I'd imagine? But other than that, aye, looks ace.

Sam the Eagle Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 i'm quite surprised there hasn't been a small old bingo granny writing into the evening express about the "garish and unsightly" paintjob.still, it's only been a few days/good to see bigger premises though, you could barelyswing a heavily tattooed dwarf in the old one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the customers that maybe wanna try on some of the shoes and have a walk around to see how they feel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Karloff Posted April 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 i'm quite surprised there hasn't been a small old bingo granny writing into the evening express about the "garish and unsightly" paintjob.Give them time...! There are an old couple who spent 1 day curtain twitching across the road in the flats, then another day just sitting at the window glowering as we put on the signage and started moving in the stock. You'd think they'd be glad to have a vibrant and tidy shop there instead of the scabby white state of the place before! Yes it stands out, but hopefully in a good way. I think George Street benifits from an injection of colour amidst all the grey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 it makes it easy to find on a foggy day. shame i couldn't find a pair of 'stretch fucking jeans' in there to fit me i hate being tiny sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
