What do you reckon about tattoos?

I don’t have any but 2 of my son in laws do and 3 of my grandchildren. None of them are particularly noticeable but I can’t say I particularly like them. I don’t like the ones that totally cover arms and/ or legs, though. I think they are ugly. Especially when people get older.

Tattoos? Again? I agree with Calendargirl -if we're scraping the barrel - try hairdos, silk scarves, favourite biscuits maybe?

I have to disagree, the OP wanted to discuss it, I dont think it scrapes the bottom of the barrel. People can read something else.
I have a tattoo and I like it, it represents something close to me. It is not particularly noticable though.

I don't get tatooes. But I have many friends with them, from small and discreet, to more or less all over. Each to their own.

A bit of a Marmite post. You do or you don't, really. I was brought up to view tattoos being fine on sailors and nobody else. Not my thing but equally fine for those who like them.

Lots of sailors in my family and not a single one has a tattoo!

However, one DD has a very discreet one.

Yes I only noticed it after I had posted.

I have 4. All can be hidden by clothing. I regret one, and hope to get it covered someday. Maybe with a coffin....estranged husbands name! Lol
