God, I wouldn't have one done in Turkey. Who's to say whether their hygiene standards are as strict as ours? Where's the comeback if it all goes horribly wrong?

again first you said it was a nice tat, then you say it looks bloody awful are you referring to that paticular tat or just tats in general

Hi bubba, he's got a few tats all done in england and he thought the standards in turkey were better than england plus it was done in our 4* complex. Hubby was impressed about the standard of hygiene.

Making sure you remove all the blood if any and the clear liquid from the skin doing this will stop the skin scabbing up badly
Worked a treat : no big scabs forming

do you actually know what chav stands for "chop"?
Chav doesnt stand for anything !
Its a word gypsies have been using for years, just means 'child' as in 'thats my little chavvy over there, bare knuckle boxing with my wife etc...' - until the recent UK chav scene thing, it wasnt derogatory in any way, just part of the gypsy / pikey language.
I dont even know how it got from small gypsy children covered in stolen gold to slightly larger children covered in Argos gold plate.
HISTORY LESSON OVER.

I don't get it.
You tattoo people get scarred for life with some pretend chinese 'mystical' symbol or whatever that supposedly means so much to you and 'your essence' but just makes me think '****', but always in some language that no-one can understand. Why not have the english word 'peace' or whatever rubbish burnt on your skin if it means so much.
I'm afraid to say that the vast majority of people I've met with tattoos appear under educated. Please persuade me of the merits of this wierd vain mutilation custom?

Why bother to explain?
You either get it or you don't
It may be fair to say that many undereducated people have tattoos (often DIY disasters at that), but its not fair to say that the majority of people with tattoos are undereducated.
Since the beginning of time people have adorned themselves with, amongst other things, tattoos.
Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I've never seen burberry in the British Museum of Natural History
