Tattoonie

Yo,

So I'm going to Ibiza on Wednesday & my mates & I are feeling rather rebellous so we are considering getting tattoos. I know many of you are prolly thinking OmG how gai etc. I was the most anti-tattoo person ever but I figure if I'm ever going to get one it may as well be in Ibiza when I'm off my face & with my friends.

I don't really want a large garish tat with my mothers name, might not go down too well in the wardroom. I've been thinking quite deeply about it & I definately want to get something that has a significant meaning to me, something I believe in very strongly.

I wondered what to get, perhaps an anchor to represent my Navy family links? Then I had a brainwave to use the ships crest from my grandfathers warship in world war two. HMS Vesper. I managed to track down his shipmates & also re-search what he did, though I never met the guy he is my hero. I think this would be a good way of honouring him & also the men who served aboard the ship. It's quite an interesting pic too as 'Vesper' means 'evening star'.

my version of what I want the tat to look like, I've gotten rid of all the border crap & added the motto below: 'You never know what the evening will bring' - or words to that effect.

Do you guys think this is totally gay? I'm considering getting it done on my arm round about sholder patch level. Do you think black or silver?

looks ok.
I've thought about getting a tattoo but never really was swayed by the whole idea of it.

Wait a year or so to get a tattoo. I just saw a news report on temporary tattoos that are coming out soon that only require like a 10 minute process to reverse if you ever want to remove it or it starts looking bad once you get older.

getting a tatt is serious business, here's some usefull tips:

DON'TS
don't get some passe tribal bullshit
don't get any celtic garbage
don't get some half arsed chinese characters that actually say "I'm a Fag", not "Love Hero Destiny"
don't get anyting remotely "Jersey Wave"

DO'S
do get a teardrop under one eye
do get hinges inside each elbow
do get a cobweb design on each outer elbow
do get a "jail quality" amateur Disney or Warner bros cartoon character (suggest Tweety, Roadrunner)
do get dots all around ur neck with "cut here" text
do get one like Simo got (pictured below)

ermmm ummm while that tattoo is still and will always be a part of me its nothing compared to what I got done recently. I got this tat to show people how cool I was. I really think it will increase my annual blowjobs received by 300% MINIMUM.
