BME/News and Modblog highlight only a small fraction of what
1 Hook Ave? Really? Kind of funny right, or at least ironic?
No? k.
Very good to see places doin this. Though I think it’s needed in more places,around the world!
In Scotland for example (Where I am), branding, scarification and suspensions and even open plan studios are all illegal. Why can’t there be other associations that are able to do educative things, and hopefully allow progression of modifications in places? People have to be educated before they can perform new procedures, and unfortunatly, it’s just not allowed in Scotland. But in the rest of the UK it is.. Dammit.
Back on subject though! This sounds good.
..If only I was in Canada?

Thankfully, I already have my BBP certificate; unfortunately, I don’t have the money to attend the sterilization class this year, but I’ll definitely keep it in mind for next year.
Katy the space is mine and trust me when i got the space i thought it was funny as well that it was 1 hook ave.
