All I would say is dont skimp on the money a cheap tat will always be shit.

I will only use Scribe in Bournmouth from now on. Just so happens I will be heading down there on Friday for some more work.

As for tats looking dated in the years to come. If you want it you have it.

All the work I have is for me and if nobody else likes it so fooking what.

One last word. PLEASE DONT GO TO A TATOOIST COS THEY ARE CHEAP. You will regret it.

Nothing beats doing it yourself with a knife and a fountain pen, just like in prison.

Go and see Daryl at Cornucopia Tattoo in Taunton, they are just along from the station and everyone in the shop is a biker and Daryl does some nice work and tell em that big AndyT sent you. You'll see bike pictures on the wall and Daryl is the area rep for the VJMC too so he knows a bit about bikes too.

if you're sure you want to go through with it, tell Kawasaki, see if you can get some money or free gear off them. Its good marketing/advertising for them :P

On the subject, do tattoos hurt? Or does it depend on where they are done, hear so many different things.
I really want one but want something that means something to me.

the one on my arm wasnt too bad my bros and sisters had similar ones as a family link and they coped fine,it does hurt no matter what anyone says.
but ive got quite a high pain threshold so i kinda grit me teeth and bear it,the lower back one wasnt too bad either,however the one on my ribs was agony but was worse afterwards cos it was bruised where it had shook me ribcage,after a couple days it felt better.
id reccomend top of your arm for a first one. :D
