NIT-C
The Northern Ireland Tattoo Community was formed in the 1990s and consisted of a group of young students who constantly plagued the influential tattooist ‘Sailor Bill’ with requests for single words in fonts that were not synonymous with his style.
The artist, based around the Coleraine area, was thought to have become disillusioned…. but not anywhere near as disillusioned as those who later went on to think cravats and patchwork dresses were cool.

Susie pondered over what word to have tattooed on her foo faaaaaa….. ‘Live’, ‘Laugh’, or maybe ‘Love’…..? The girls back at NIT-C would be dead impressed, unlike Sailor Bill. He conceded to do the the tattoo, but only after it was agreed it would be in his own indecipherable font.
