Why don't you get a tattoo done?

Oh NO!
I have gone to some lengths to get a good snap.......I almost broke my neck on some slippery rocks at the swallow falls(as long as I didn't break the camera..it was alright) but I would draw the line at getting a tattoo just so that I could get a pic of some tubes.

I don't care how tasteful the tattoos are...they are not my thing at all...on men or on women.

Re: New Photo Competition 23

I thought about getting a tattoo once years ago, but chickened out then too. I don't like pain! And now I'm glad I didn't bother. I see all these young people covered in them in very visible places, and imagine how they're going to feel later in life. A bit foolish, I'm guessing.

No, maybe not.....it seems that there are more folk tattoo'd than not. I reckon it will be something to see someone without a tattoo in the future.

Re: New Photo Competition 23

I have voted -not many votes in so far -a wide variety of variations on the theme -was a hard choice!
Unfortunately I had used up my 5 slots or I would have put in a photo of my newly re-plumbed heating system which failed on day 2 of the house-move. Had a bit of a nightmarish week as I had to move a load of stuff and stop un-boxing things while a team of plumbers fitted antique looking external copper pipes to the radiators throughout the house, as a leak in the old pipes somewhere was blocking the boiler! Should all be hitched up tomorrow with luck as we're expecting a cold spell. After that the builder will fill up the holes they've drilled -paintwork will be touched up and I will allow myself a small nervous breakdown once I've finished cleaning everything (yet again!) and finally unpack.

Well done Turtle, I thought you were going to give us a bit of a chance, but never mind the best photo won, there is always the next competition, possibly.

Thank you all - I'm more than a little gobsmacked to win again, but it was Mick's theme that won in my book. It brought out a truly great set of photos from everyone! The theme of pipes gave us all a lot to work with. I quickly had to come up with an idea for the next Comp., and Margaret's reflection of herself in the window inspired it. Good luck to all!
