Further to Sandra`s thread about tattoos, I have had a few more added, and was wondering if anyone else has. Or of course, the likes and dislikes.

Can't stand them personally but each to his own. My niece and her ex are covered in them - her husband almost literally - full body and sleeves - I think that's the term. It can look attractive but surely they won't look so good when the muscle and skin tone's gone? Magsx

l'd like one on my wrist of a feather,but l don't like the dark outline - a shop near us says it can be done without the line but she did'nt know what would happen in a few yrs time, whether the tattoo would just run into the arm(if you know what l mean)!!! Does anyone out there know??? Jude sarf wales

Always thought about having small, subtle one, somewhere like top of thigh. Husband is not keen!!! A friend of mine had a small chain of roses tattooed around her belly button which looked so pretty......until she fell pregnant...with twins!!! Then (& now, bless her) it looks more like a ruddy garden full!!! ;-))))

I finally plucked up the courage to have a tattoo done a fortnight ago. I liked it that much, I went back and had another done last Thursday. I have a tribal design on both legs now. My parents think I'm mad, but each to there own. Beginning to consider my next tattoo now.... Gem

hi baz i feel all honoured you mentioning my previous thread,on tattoos it was ages ago. i still only have the large butterfly in a heart leaf design in between my shoulder blades. can't afford to get anymore done yet. my son got his niece's name katie tattooed on his chest, near his heart, and i'm sure his own baby will be on their in march. lol sandra

l have wanted a tattoo for yrs - hubby is ok with it,son is'nt though, he's worried l will look like a gypsy, not that that is anything to be worried about either - but hey!!! originally l wanted a bangle - anything to do with Indians,as l am a coward the feather will have to do instead. Can't see why we women should'nt want to have them, we wear make up and jewellery, so why not a permanent piece of jewellery and yeh if l should drown it would help identify me lol:o) Jude sarf wales:o)
