Re: Tatoos

Re: Tatoos


You could have a henna tatoo done to see if it looks right on your back? Otherwise it looks like a nice tatoo that wouldn't date or be a regret in the future. Names can go so badly wrong...

Re: Tatoos


Kittyfix - that is a seriously beautiful tatoo - really a work of art!! I adore the stylised cat

Carly - I DO remember the weetabix men now you mention it, just didn't realise they had an Indianna Jones one thanks for the link!!

BB - yes, that's the image I'm hoping to have (it's actually nicked from a marketing recruitment company's ad ). And yes again - the tail will curl up my spine a bit; I realise being right on the bone it'd be painful, but hey I'm about to have another baby so I think (hope) I'll be able to manage the tatoo pain

AH thank you for that info -I honestly didn't know that about diabetics -
I just thought it was all to do with blood sugar and and insulin levels -

sorry this has taken ages I was relpying straight away but we had a fire alarm and we have been out side for 45 mins -

My bro and his gf live in nuneaton, just noticed that where your from. Much nicer than where I LIve!
not been here long (Nuneaton) - so don't know much about it -still finding my way round -

we have something in common - I'm nutty too good nutty though

like in my other post I ws replying - Fran -but we had a fire alarm - it is really nice outside - lovely and warm - the firemen came -no fire but couldn't send us back in till they found where the so called fire was - it was a particular zone but they couldnt find the zone chart

My tattoo person said on Monday when I called to book in -take some painkillers an hour B4 that will help with the pain.

that cat logo is really ace - I would seriously consider that - will you see my paw once it has de-scabbed

Re: Tatoos


That's very elegant Yola.
Make sure you go to a reputable place - your little lads won't want you getting ill from your adornment!

I sometimes smile at the prospect of old folks' homes in a few years time, full of sweet grey-haired souls on zimmer frames comparing their wrinkley tattoos!

Me? - I'm just a wuss. Had my ears pierced aged 35 (one in each) and that's it!

Re: Tatoos


I have a tattoo.
on my arm.
It took hours to do, it cost a fortune & I hate it.
Worst thing I ever did.
Biggest regret of my life.

You can just about see some of it on this picture

I look a right miserable cow on this photo
