Booked in already (long waiting list with ward winning tattoo artist) to have my first in Aug...2 foot Japanese dragon in black and grey down left side of my back onto my butt with sons name and date of birth entwined round the dragon...tatts are amazing pieces of art (when done right by bloody good artist) and can be soooo damn sexy lol

Posted: 5/17/2008 3:19:45 PM | | I got a tattoo of an angel on my shoulder for my 40th paid for by my pal i drew the line at her adding to colette happy birthday love lynne. It was kind of a 2 fingered salute to my ex who doesnt like tatts on woman. Was't as sore as I thot, much to the disgust of my 17 year old son who came with me to film me "greetin like a **** " so he could put me on utube . | |

Posted: 5/23/2008 4:32:20 PM | Hi calspal, Tattoos are an eternal statement, and therefore should be thought about carefully, i think mine should say, Thank You, or better, Gracias, because, I am grateful for my life, to my parents, despite their failings, despite my failings, i shall contiue to strive for happiness. I admire and respect you for your need for independence. and thank you, for saving me, love to talk to you  | |

not a single one do i have on my body
not having tattoos is very addictive
I had another four of them today - and might get another six tomorrow.
I think in answer to the question posed by the OP, and influenced by recent events...
Yes they are dated, can be a health risk and in no way are 'sexy' - they can be accepted, as can many other 'flaws' on a person, but my personal choice and I stand by it. | |

| Tattoos and where and why you have them there.. Posted: 7/15/2008 1:02:51 PM | I have three tattoos:
A (small) shark silhouette on my upper-left arm (I liked the look of it)
A (small) spider hanging from a thread on my upper-right arm (I liked the look of it)
A (large) black tribal sun on my right forearm. There used to be a skull there, but the tattooist messed it up and I needed a cover-up. | |

Posted: 7/15/2008 1:42:02 PM | | I have 11 now too many to mention I have a wolf cub on my right ankle its about the size of an apple the reason is i had a nasty scar there and the tattoo covers it up. I have another that goes from my big toe across my foot and round my ankle. I have one on my boob which I was originally going to have on the inside of my wrist and changed my mind as i was sat on the couch.I have a wrist band of daisys a blue rose on my thumb the kiss lips on my upper thigh a heart with wings on my upper arm and the other arm has a drunken mouse cartoon. On my back at the top i have a large black rose and a bud on my lower back i have 2 dolphins entwined with barbed wire and my sis and mums name above each dolphin and on my left wrist/forearm i have a shooting star. think thats all of them. They all mean something to me. | |
