Oh I’ve heard about this. It’s actually about a small town in Newfoundland where there’s this huge relic of an airport from the days planes couldn’t quite make it the whole way across the Atlantic and used to stop there to refuel. All the diverted planes after the twin towers went down got sent there & the townsfolk took the passengers in, so the musical is about that.

Ok.. That makes it sound a little less horrific. Thank you.

Re Emin - didn’t someone 🔺 it as being one of a load of mass produced prints sold at an exhibition or something?

Yes! It was poster Emin designed for the 2012 Paralympics, called “Birds”. I think someone here pointed out that there were free prints of it in Vogue magazine.

So there might be two Emins, the one we saw was not in a toilet. (There’s a sentence you don’t get to type every day!).
 
I've got a postcard of this on my fridge, I found it near a puddle (true story).

Squishing 47 questionable decisions into two sleeves (or 46 plus the one 'intimate' tattoo that turned out to not be what she said at all) is not impressive. Well, it is, but more in the sense that it's impressive for one person to consistently have so many terrible ideas that they want to commit to for life. The way she's worded it is to make people think she's heavily tattooed when apparently each arm is 9% of a person's total skin, so she only has a coverage of about 18%. I would rate this percentage as sub-edgy. This has been tattoo mithering with TS, thanks for attending.
