Tattoos are great….aren’t they??
The tattoo craze is in full swing,
some people don’t have a few,
arms and legs all coloured up,
but have they thought it through?
Because at twenty you are trendy,
by thirty you’re covered in ink,
alas at fifty you start to crease up,
at sixty you are starting to shrink.
Everything is loose and flapping,
that once was taught and pink,
and your tattoos lose their shape,
with the words all out of sync.
At sixty five in the pension queue,
the ladies man using his charms,
but no females fall under his spell,
“MOTORHEAD” inked up his arms.
She’s sixty two, here is Cynthia,
sherry has made her much bolder,
at the tea dance in her finest gown,
” CRACK WHORE” on her shoulder.
As Sid was young he had it done,
he wouldn’t listen or be told,
at 99, he has inked on his back,
“HOPE I DID BEFORE I GET OLD”.
See grandma walking on the beach,
on a relaxing sun kissed stroll,
black cobwebs drawn on each elbow,
on her forehead ” BARBIE DOLL”
So the moral of this story is,
sit down then think it through,
tattoos are great but if overdone,
they may just bloody haunt you.

Not on your nelly, they ain’t! My body is my temple!
Mind you I did once want to get the Silver Surfer tattooed on my back but the my brother had a white horse done on his arm that went septic! The white ink had a habit of doing that in the eighties…
I have had pierced ears for an age but nothing more…
I look at the tats and find myself thing wtf? Why do that, why ink up some tribal shit that means nothing in the scheme of things… or, even worse, a rose or a skull? What are these fools thinking?
Yuckity yuck Polly🤮🤢🤯
So far, I have resisted all temptation ( liquid and mental) to get a tattoo on my body. Not even a small butterfly on my hip or a tramp stamp above my pantyline to remind me of my 20’s, unless there one back there and no one will tell me. LOL.
When I was about 8, my sister and a couple her friends all got their ears pierced by an ‘expert’ from high school. One of the girls got an infection and hid it for too long. They had to cut off her lobe and a part of her ear as a result. That spooked me enough to never want mine pierced and I never have.

I have one tattoo on my back between my shoulder blades. It is a triquetra, it has 3 interlaced arcs. One for my Dad, one for my Mom and one for my brother…they have all passed away and I’m the only one left from my family. In the middle of the interlaced arcs is a faint red heart which represent me, still alive. I was very careful of the design, the size and location. Other than that it will be the only tattoo I will ever have.

That sounds beautiful xx
Now sixty-two, poor Clara,
When younger full of sass.
Much more “firma” was her “terra”,
Stamped “Baby Cakes” on her a$$.
I’m sure she now regrets it
That big ol’ bottom tatt,
The words no longer fit,
Those “Cakes” just turned to fat.

My dear baby cakes…thats brilliant !!!! xx
Pierced 3 in left ear, 2 in right, 2 in left nostril and 1 never you mind 🤣 I do want a tattoo though, a symbol I have been playing with for years. I am a Scorpio, and have been playing with the design of a tribal scorpion.. only recently did it occur to me, the shape and location is that of ovaries… could it have been a subconscious decision?
I have my kids names on my arm in a heart and did my ears myself not a good thing to do but there level and have never been a problem luckily. Looking back should of got them done properly but was ashamed to go in a shop and ask silly young me.x
don’t panic Clara….
I have left a trail of empty wine bottles…..xx
Older but not bolder or wiser but no tats. But I am having great urges to get my ears pierced but by a professional piercer.
Kath…nothing wrong with that at all…well done xx
I have 3 tat’s , one a portrait of my so in her mid 30’s, beautiful, and an eagle coming in for a landing, with her name clasped in its claws. I don’t regret either of these, and wear them proudly.
The one on the other arm, ehhh, not so much, I may get it changed to a climbing rose vine or something,
Hugs, Regi👩💕
