Getting my first tattoo

[Pearcey]

2 Weeks tomorrow.

It's a Chinese 'Parallel Phrase' (2 phrases that compliment each other and are used in Chinese proverbs)

It translates as,

"A lonely stranger in a strange land I am cast,
I miss my family all the more on every festive day. "

My Mum died recently, and this just jumped out at me... More importantly though, I like the aesthetics of it.

It's going on my right inner fore-arm.

Actually, yes.

There's a friend of a friend who earns a nice little side-earner by translating chinese for tattoos and other purposes... Also I took it into the local chippy and they confirmed it.

go to your local chinese and ask them

It probably means Salt and pepper spare ribs and a tub of nagasaki sauce.....


seriously...dont do it, you will feel like a total tool when your 75 and your rolling up your sleeves when crown green bowling, a tattoo portrays a certain amount of recklessness in its wearer, it makes a employer think twice about you, makes a nice girl from a nice family not bother with you and generally puts over a image most people wouldn't want to be associated with.......do your self a favour.... dont bother they are a adornation of the great unwashed

in my opinion tattoos on a lad dont put me off, i think they good as long as his heads not covered in tattoos or his body just one or 2 is just right.
