    Pretty self explanatory. Any recommendations for tattoo artists in or around Leicester (even as far as London, Birmingham, Nottingham, etc)?

    Thoughts on the clocktower being moved?

    Reported last night on the great central gazette that they're moving the clocktower to Beaumont Leys? What's your thoughts on this? Not sure what to think of it to be honest, would certainly bring a lot more traffic to the area that's for sure.

    Any hobbiest welders or latheworkers need some metal?

    I have at least a quintal, probably close to two, worth of mostly scrap steel, some might be aluminium and some might be stainless that will go to scrap with in a few days. Theres also a fair amount of of nuts and bolts of up to 20mm diameter and up to 200mm long that could potentially be machined and considered steel rods. Its a shame to see it go to waste but I am keeping a whole lot already and can't keep all of it. Could come in handy to hobbiest latheworkers or welders. If anyone would like to have a look and possibly take anything they need, feel free to message me.
