Liam & James, Shiva, 2007
The original Liam ‘Gasman’ Clarke & James ‘El Capitan’ Hook @ Shiva, Greenwich, SE10. 2007. Back in these days I was just workin’ at the old shop part time, whilst Liam was the shop manager and body piercer. Great guy, good friend and I loved working with him even though I wasn’t around the shop as much back then. The shop, really, really has changed; that was even before the ’14 move!! Looks like some sort of kaleidoscope here…

Here’s a labret piercing w/1.6mm x 12mm labret bar.

Here’s Tatenda’s dermal anchor on the back, between the shoulder blades w/a titanium metal disc top.
Shiva Piercings was @ 24 Greenwich Church St. for 15yrs…
Shiva Piercings has operated from #24 Greenwich Church St. for over a decade; whilst El Capitan has been piercing for three and a half of his six and a half there.
The crew have moved Shiva & Shiva Piercings/Tattoos to #330-332 Creek Rd as of January 2014.
Still Greenwich. Still SE10. Still the same care, skill and professionalism that has come to be expected and delivered by the Captain and the crew.
Many thanks to the many people I’ve pierced and met through #24’s doors.
Big Love. 👊😷⚡✌👽
