Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening to all our readers, wherever you are in the world!

So I already have 3 tattoos. The first being on my hand, which is a dedication to my nan. The tattoo is of a garden bird called a Swallow, with “Nan” in her handwriting. The second one is on my upper arm, which is the logo of my local Ice Hockey team, The Cardiff Devils, I got this when they won their first league championship after I started to follow them. The third one is a large leg piece, which features characters from my childhood, such as Spyro the Dragon, Crash Bandicoot, Rayman, Magnemite, Gabumon and many more. If I were to get another one, it would be a dedication to my Grandad to go alongside my Nan, it would probably be another bird of some variety.
