Thanks @Gingerninja !
Keep forgetting to mention all my recent work has been done at Ministry of Ink in Farnham UK by a chap called Ben Dunning - boat and Kraken were not really his "style" and were to designs worked up by my Mrs (who usually does quilts).
Suffice to say I did not "sit like a rock" for this one and there may have been some quiet swearing involved :-)... 

Kraken.... goes with the boat... done today ...

Went back for another session today. Made great strides of progress. Shop was quiet on a weekday. I took the gang a box of hot wings and a chocolate cake. Artist thinks we need one more touch session after everything heals to get the final blending and shading. The areas near my armpits almost had me standing up. 

Got this today.Jessie Hopeless Exile Tattoo.This is first session to be finished in three weeks.

I have to admit to being 50 at this point then :-)...  thought it was just me with the continuing tattoo thing ...obviously not then- which is of course marvellous.

Hey, hey, glad to see I'm not the only one that started/continued at an older age.  I'd like to think that I'm past the point where I'll regret it later in life. lol
Here's a pic of my first. Never have taken the time to get a good one.
 

Looks like I'm hanging in there for the "Oldest Living Person on Last Sparrow" award. Considering the alternative, I'm OK with that.
