Ok, here you go


My offerings, a bit of celtic and some personal stuff

As soon as my son is born, I'm planning on getting all my 3 kids names done as well.


So, whats everyone got????

Back design & 5 point star outline on left tricep.. Currently lining up for a half sleeve on my right arm..

Excuse the photo, taken in November just before I landed back on these shores..

I'm sorry, but all this tattoo thing seems to be lost on me..... :?

Unfortunately, I can't say the same for my daughter (who's 23 and now old enough to know better :!: :roll: ) . Her mother and I drew the line at pierced eyebows/lips though, and when she lived at home always told her that if that ever happened her bags would be packed and she'd be out the door "as quick as looking". Never happened either....

But then I am just an old fart of course .

Always the chick

that sand is so soft & deep looks like you have no feet
Still can't work out why you came back here? First chance I get I'm out.
Yes have two tattoos. Not showing pic's as I hate them But I need both my arms. So they stay (tattoos that is) till I can get the tattoos removed.

How about a picture of Mrs GT?

As I mix with a few Japanese. Where tattoos are a no no. Best just get them removed.

That sand was about 100C I remember, so hot you had to either get your feet wet or wear thongs [flip flops, not skimpies] to tolerate it.. :shock:

I like it in the UK, lovely Winter we're having/had, getting back into the biking whilst surf is on the back plate.. Decent beer.. A Countryside that won't kill you.. European culture on your doorstep..

Strange you mention tattoos are a taboo in Japan given the plethora of Japanese style designs [Koi Carp, Lotus flowers etc.] I've seen. Going for a half sleeve [over shoulder to just below elbow] with a bit of Japanese inspiration; Rising Sun with Katsushika Hokusai's Mount Fuji..

That's true. But on one of the recent Wu meets. I did have a tree jump out in front of me and attack me. :shock: Lucky no damage to the bike
