I say go for it. I never understand the "it will look ridiculous when your 65 " arguement . If you are lucky enough to make it to 65 a tattoo will be the least of your concerns, and everything on you will look ridiculous from your faded tat to your flappy old man tits.

Get it done but get it done in side whats called the Tshirt line.

Any ideas on a tattoo if I do go ahead and get one.

first i think this would be a great idea but think long and hard about what to get if i was in your position id go for it

Yep, I say go for it as well. Though you might want to be careful about excluding any future progeny - so maybe get something that could be added to? -like a little acorn (you) opening up into a great oak (your family) which can grow more branches if and as required. Just a thought.

Still though, while not a fan of tattoos, they can be sexy on some girls...you know what type I'm on about

why don't you get one of Ray Houghton, seeing as you love him so much..

Nice idea

That is really lovely idea. A family tree on your arm or since the acorn is a nut of sorts..........

Exactly.......how did you read my mind so accurately? Did that short car journey together fuse our minds somehow? Must have been the warp speed I did over the Liffey.

my family are not a collection of nuts , we are a very large well grounded, harmonious bunch of characters who just don't like settled people

first hows the tattoo coming along have you made up your mind what to get done.

**sadloserkid** · 22/06/2009, 3:17 PM

Do it man though I'd recommend that you follow Anto's advice and keep the first one out of plain sight. You can always get 'Mo chlann' on your forehead later on if you really want to.

If you are getting names or words though make sure and then double and triple check that they're spelled right on your outlines before the actual tattooing starts. My friend Jak could tell a story.
