A tattoo and piercing studio that's inked Geordie Shore stars and Newcastle United footballers has been taken over by its former Saturday boy.
Jon Moss is the new owner of Pins and Needles Tattoo Studio on Grainger Street in Newcastle city centre after spending 15 years working his way up from a weekend desk role to studio manager - a role he's held for the last decade. Founded in 2008 by James Norrey, the business is said to be one of the city's last remaining 'walk-in' studios.
The 47-year-old former owner is handing over the reins to Jon as he looks to spend more time at home in Scarborough with his family, however, he will still be a regular face at the studio.
