Monday afternoon’s news comes complete with wordplay not normally within my capabilities until a caffeine-fuelled Wednesday, and whilst it’s not exactly hot off the press, I thought it prudent to make fellow Brits aware that a great talent is about to depart our land.

Sarah Schor bids farewell to Edinburgh’s Red Hot & Blue next month as she takes on a position at New York’s glittering emporium of tattoo perfection, NY Adorned. She’s no longer accepting bookings here in Blighty and our American counterparts should drop the studio a line if they wish to snap up some time with this young lady. Her time under Paul Slifer’s tutelage have ensured Sarah has blossomed into an extremely capable tattoo artist, and I don’t doubt that she will only grow further as she works alongside some of the finest in NYC.

Sarah, we wish you well and hope that you grace us with a guest spot or two in the near future. Bon voyage!
