Tattoos are a very strange thing. Some love them and some hate them. The worrying people are those that don't care either way cos they tend to get them and regret it. The main problem is we see really great tattoos and imagine ours will be like that. It always amazes me how poor Beckhams tattoos are. I have four decent sized tattoos. The first I got at about 30 years old. A simple 5 pointed star on my upper arm/shoulder. Then I met and eventually married my wife. So, on the other upper arm I got a nice design of my own of a rose encircled by some personal words about my love. Then we had a couple of kids so I had the star surrounded by a sunburst encorporating their two names. Then our third came along by surprise so under the sunburst I had a lions head with his name. Then around our tenth wedding anniversary I had a heart with our wedding date and first song under the rose tattoo. All of my tattoos were excellent until the last one. I took advice from a mate about a local tattooist who was really good. She has ****ing mutilated my arm. It's a disgrace. So, when I've got a decent amount of wedge handy I will be throwing myself on the mercy of my regular tattooist and begging him to do what he can to save my arm. Even if he has to sleeve it. Funnily enough my Mrs doesn't even like tattoos and would have preferred me not to have any. She's the reason I don't get them below the elbow. But, given the chance I would be covered in tattoos. I love them. My little sister has one arm completely sleeved and many more tattoos on her. I envy her.
I have complete sleaves on each arm, my right arm has a couple of chinese dragons that curl round my arm flying though clouds. My left arm has koi carp swimming round in water with plants etc. I have a samurai walking through a field of long grass on my calf. I also have a small cross with a poem under it to remind me of my nan on my right shoulder blade. The tattoo I regret getting is the england flag on my other shoulder blade, got it when I was 15 and badly need to get it covered.
As my grandpapy used to say, tattoos are for sailors, criminals and those too dumb to even consider what they'll look like in 20 years.
she got a replica of the ceiling of the sistine chapel inside her fanny, she regrets it because it hurt so much and no one can stand the smell long enough to take in the meticulous levels of detail.
