What you going to get Skippy? I have a few, including quite a large cherry blossom piece on my back....man that hurt... and am thinking that after the IVA I am going to get a credit piece on my thigh, I have 6 years to come up with it lol!
7 year IVA completed in December 2016 - there is light at the end of that tunnel
My daughter is doing hairdressing in college so no more paying for hair do's for me.
I have 6 tattoos and want another one on my hand. Hubby has done 2 of mine as he has all the kit and does it as a bit of a hobby (when he can be bothered)
I don't spend that much on myself.I would buy things for me as cheap as possible and buy the better things for the kids. Hubby buys stuff for me if he hears me say i like it. He thinks im a scrooge when it comes to buying for myself.
I could never have a tattoo! The pain! I was frogmarched into a salon at 26 to have my ears pierced by my then mother in law who couldn't believe I hadn't had it done yet.
I have one on my ankle and would love another one when I can afford it. Mine didn't hurt at all.
I had my ears pierced at 21 and then again when my daughter had hers done. She wouldn't do it unless I had mine done again!

oh and there is no way I'm growing old gracefully it'll be disgracefully for me all the way....I'll still be wearing jeans and ugg boots at 80, I'm sure!
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
My Wife has the odd tattoo or 8 and like you Lesley if she can afford it in the future she doesn't intend on growing old gracefully lol.
Cath my Wifes after a Cherry blossom tattoo on her foot/ankle....her favourite so far is a black panther on her shoulder, but theres no way she could afford to be a Kat Von Dee!

I came into this world with nothing and still have most of it left!
I've got a row of coloured stars on my lower back and Thumper from Bambi on my hip.
I'm thinking of a pink butterfly (my tattoos have to be coloured, I don't like black ones!), but I don't know where to have it. I don't want it on permanent display as I like to be able to cover them up.
I don't like to see too many tattoos on a woman, but a few are nice. As I said, I have one on my ankle - Tigger and will have another one when I've got the money.
I'm 55 and wear UGGS and jeans!
