I have a slightly insane and very fun loving friend coming to stay with me soon. I am fairly aware that I need to get beer and wine in the house but I also have a strange urge to get a tattoo too.
Is this just peer pressure doc and how do I deal with it? And where is Pinkster's tattoo gonna be (so I can make sure mine is better)?
Confused from Yorkshire
Dear confused.
Yes I am aware of the visit of said person and understand your predicament. Your need to get a tatoo in sympathy with this person is of course completely understandable. Though of course such tatoos are expensive, very painful, and embarresing when you are 68, down on the beach with "Live Hard, Love Hard, Fight Hard" or "Huddersfield Hells Angels, Groupie No. 1" written on you back in 6 inch high letters. As a compromise, you could buy lots of those bubble gum tatoos and put them on, you will need to keep the aorementtioned visitor in a state of compete drunkeness for the entire weekend so she doesn't notice that your tatoos are running, but that probably won't be too much of a problem.
