Stoked!

Ah yeah just saw it on your story. Good stuff!

We had three miscarriages before my wife got pregnant with our daughter so when we found out she was pregnant again we booked in for the earliest ultrasound we could which is 7 weeks. We got the scan and because it was so early all we could see was a little curve that looked like a shrimp so that was what we called her until she was born. I didn’t fancy getting her name in heavy gothic script and wanted something that wouldn’t obviously be for her that was still for her if that makes sense

that’s so rad. Also don’t discount getting the word Shrimp instead of her name in gothic script sometime in the future.

Love that. Also great to see some nice colour work, everything seems to be black at the moment (which is fine, but I like colour).

Also, crook of elbow. Oof.

Yes, that is so rad. I called my son Kuato before he was born, but I’m pretty sure I won’t be getting an image of Kuato from Total Recall tattooed on my stomach!

I got given this AWS jacket about a decade ago by Jerome when he worked at Shiner. I’m pretty sure it’s one of a handful of samples as I’ve never seen it anywhere.

I think I’ve worn it about three times due to the sleeves being insanely long and a load of the poppers breaking.
I tucked it away and completely forgot about it, and found it again a few weeks ago and decided to take it to get it altered.

Sleeves altered to fit, and all the poppers fixed! So stoked!

Ha, the same but different. Our first scan got messed up and we ended up having it a bit early. It was a lovely day apart the couple who had theirs before us, I say couple. I don’t think they were. They came out of their scan arguing about dates with the bloke going on about how it couldn’t be his and her making up biological science on the spot, about how a week or two can go missing in the making of a child. Poor thing wasn’t even born yet and it sounded like it was in for a shit life.
Anyway because our scan was so early too, we noticed he looked like a prawn as well, but more because we’d just watched District 9 a night or two before, so he was our ‘fucking prawn’, always said in a South African accent.

Haha amazing. Hopefully thats where the similarity ends and you don’t refer to yourself as “the Sweetie man” and end up eating dog meat

I put together a couple of videos for Volvo a year or so ago and learnt that they conceptualised and had a hand in the rollout of modern seat belts. They could have patented it and made a bomb, but chose not to.

…or so I was told.
