What is this obsession with tattoos? Don’t get me wrong, I think a tattoo can be very decorative and as a matter-of-fact not long ago when I was in a bit of a mood I thought of getting one myself, just a little one on my ankle. I thought it would spark me up a bit.

Couldn’t decide between a red-back spider and a rose, which for an old woman at my age would have been more appropriate. Never being an ‘appropriate’ sort of person I couldn’t make up my mind so I bought a box of chocolates and a bottle of Baileys and by the time I had consumed these I had got out of my mood and forgot about the tattoo.

However, so many bodies these days are absolutely covered with tattoos and although they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder I really can’t see anything beautiful about a body full of ink.

Still I guess it’s every person’s right to do what they want with their bodies but what happens when they run out of skin?

Would be interesting to hear other’s opinions.
