I haven't got any, won't ever get any, and hope that my children never have any.

 

Mind you - I think it's an age thing. I won't ever see 50 again, and tattoos for me are equated with builders/sailors etc

 

Nowadays of course, so many people have them and I am in the minority. In fact ... I have seen a picture on the internet of my daughter who seems to be sporting one of a balloon on her back. I tell myself that it was one of those fake ones, and I wait to see whether she wears any strappy tops when she is home this summer

I have 8...well, 9 if you include the first one I had which has since been covered with the last one!! They all tie in together, more by accident than design to begin with!! I am desperate for a new one and my back is screaming to be filled....am just trying to decide what with...then I have to save as it will not be cheap and I have much higher priorities in life than ink! Mine are all easily hidden because, whilst I love them, I appreciate that others, especially prospective employers, may not!! I have one for MrB, one for each of the boys and one in memory of my Grandma...BUT I have no writing/names/dates....the tribute is personal and not for show if that makes sense? Mine are all quite feminine without being girly....such as a piece I designed that is an orchid on a tribal background...and they are all purple!

 

I love them and only regret the first one which has since been covered by something gorgeous....still, if I hadn't had the first one then maybe the others wouldn't have followed...

I managed to keep quiet about it all over Easter - although I confess I did jump on her in bed once ... but still didn't see anything!

 

Poor thing - she got the shock of her life

! I got one when I was in my teens ( back in the builders/ sailors day!) , a celtic knot on my shoulderblade. My mum was horrified when she saw it , and said " for God's sake don't let your dad see that! " .. was well into my 30s before he noticed it at a family party. He asked what that was on my shoulder , and my mum went pale, and whispered " it's a tattoo, Jim" in a shock/ horror kind of voice.. he went " oh, I like that!" and pointed it out to all and sundry - he was quite proud !  For my 40th, he and mum got me a silver bracelet made to match my triquetra tattoo

I had a temporary tatoo applied when I visted a fair, it lasted for several weeks but I wouldn't have a real one. There's an online US tv show and the main woman tatooist is a really beautiful lady at the age she is now and she's extremely artistic, and covered in tatoos. Every time I see her when  flicking through channels I wonder if when she's much older and her beauty fades if she'll regret the decisions she took when young and beautiful. Maybe, maybe not.

Back of neck. 

I recently saw someone with a barcode tattooed on the back of their neck. 

THATS what I want, not at the back of my neck though, right at the bottom of my spine. I have toyed with a couple of ideas that i might like, it was between that or a cupcake on my bum. But have decided to go with a rainbow coloured barcode right at the base of my spine, (so you cant see it when i dance). And maybe it will say made in Scotland under it.
