Riiiiiiiiggghhhtt...

My Grandfather told me that his tattoos were a secret code to other fishermen and sailors, like a weird sea-faring Masonic thing. I was with him in a pub in Dublin as a kid and someone bought him a drink. He claimed it was because of his mermaid tattoo, but the guy probably just owed him. Might have file this one under 'bullshit my grandfather told me'.

i tend to decide i want something new and when that lightbulb sparks in my mind i have no idea what im getting or where its going...
i get in the car, go to the shop, point aimlessly at something on a sheet 3rd from the top 7th across and say "that one please"
the response is usually "have a seat" and 4 hours later ive got something brilliant i didnt think id have when i woke up that morning.

These are a few of my most recent, coincidently all happen to be don Nolan designs from back in the 70s
Very little if any tweaks to the original designs :)
Oldschool is cool :)

Hey folks new here obviously :)
Names Dan, collector of traditional tattoos
Lately find myself being mused by the likes of Don Nolan and Bert Grimm to name a couple
Found my way to LST through links that led me to the "How do you prefer your battle royale" thread

I show up an hour early, stand in the window and shake with excitement while chain smoking and yelling "COME ON FUCKER. COME ON!!!"

Well, I don't want Fop, goddammit! I'm a Dapper Dan man!
