Tattoos

[Redd]

None yet, but only because I can't find an artist prepared to undertake the work I want two full sleeves and a back piece as a memorial to my dad. The style is basically ancient Egyptian, and the whole thing will tell stories from my dads life in hieroglyphics.

The Midlands Tattoo Centre in Cannock used to be proper good. Haven't been back for a few years, but they're still all over t'internet, so still going strong.

I'd say get "Shavemac" on your arm

Watch a few episodes of Tatoo Fixers instead?

Okay promise one thing, if it's a bicep job don't continue to wear sleeveless or if it's a leg job don't continue to wear shorts in mid-winter. No-one else is that interested, honest.

Don't do it Nishy.

Do you REALLY want one ? (or one more) (or two) (or six) ( or twenty six) ?

JUST SAY NO!






By the way... hearty congrats on your wedding and every happiness in the future.

(Notice I didn't say..Going Forward!

I don't know what I hate most....the "Going Forward" expression ...............or tattoos )

Safe journey home.

Be post-modern and get one deliberately based on those mis-spelled tattoos and those with incorrect grammar: NO RUGRATS

I'd say if you haven't gotten one at home, don't do it while on vacation. Spur of the moment, holiday high and a dab of alcohol, etc.

But hey, congratulations and salutations, Nishy! Wedding ceremony and party went well, I take it? Did I miss any photos and/or reports of yours somewhere around here?

I've got ten, on my arms back and chest. If you're undecided I'd say don't do it and you can always have them done later if you change your mind. If you do have them, the philosophy I went with is don't have them where you can't cover up with a shirt. My brother had love and hate on his knuckles and it affected what jobs he could go for.

Cheers gents, wedding went well, had to deal with issues from the caterers and photographer, but nothing 'apparent' to the guests. After a year and a half of planning I would have been distraught had it not run smoothly. It really was the perfect day, so thank you all for your good wishes, prayers and blessings. Opted out of the tattoo as you cant go in the pool or ocean or stay in the sun for too long....errr....i'm on holiday.

Glad to hear it went well mate.

Wise on the tattoo!

I got my Manchester bee this morning, first tattoo in ten years and the only one with meaning.
