next tattoo

i have to get my foot finished (a world of pain...)
and i need to get my flames sorted out on my right arm.
This needs adding to and i have found the perfect thing. I need a LIGHTNING BOLT!!
Went to see Patti smith last week at the De La Warr pavilion and got a signed copy of her book, "Just Kids".
Am really enjoying it and have just read a part where she asked Vali Myers to tattoo a lightning bolt on her knee. I need a lightning bolt.
I frequency need a rocket up my arse, so maybe this is the next best thing.
For those of you who don't know who Vali Myers is, I will post a link. An amazing, self-tattooed woman who lived in the mountains and had a fox for a pet. An artist and a friend of Marianne Faithful. My uncle gave me a book about her 20yrs ago and it is still a favourite and an inspiration.
ok, lecture over, mundane house crap to do and then off to work!
