This is a custom piece that I have on my left Calf, it honours my personality alongside my Scottish heritage alongside my favourite career I had as a Gardener. The quote that is above the tattoo is from the film Gladiator, ND is my birth initials (although now consigned to history) as is my Dad’s surname to on the knuckles, 1983 is my birth year.

The ones I have in memory of my 7 late dogs. I'm heavily tattooed but those are my favourite. Can't get pics as ive no one here to take them. I've Scottish ancestors,The Gordon's and the Andersons. I adore Scotland.

Hah, I'm so glad I'm not the only person here with a tattoo of their dog on their chest @noman 😆 Loving yours @Grumpy1314 I love tattoos that have thought and meaning behind them.

All of my tatts have meaning to me, bits of my life to be remembered on my skin. I'll try and get the most meaningful ones photographed in a bit, but they're on my forearm, so not the easiest to take pics of. 😆

It's that or a pic of my boy, Baldrick, which I adore as it's so beautifully done, but quite faded these days.

All my tattoos were done whilst I was three sheets before the wind!

My eldest daughter is heavily tattooed, and I hate it! I have never said so of course, but I really don't like seeing them on the fairer sex (old fashioned, I know).

It’s a generation thing, today things are so different to what they were even when I was a week 30 odd years ago. Today there are no boundaries, no respect for the Emergency Services, Schools don’t care what kids wear, and as for this country it’s gone to the dogs! Birmingham has gone back to the 1970’s with all the bin bags piling up

On last night's BBC News, it was claimed the bin men will be £6k PA worse off if they accept the proposed pay deal. I would walk in front of the bin lorries too if I was them!

Pretty rubbish (sorry) deal for the residents, and I sympathise with their predicament. A load of chancers are using this as an opportunity to dump white goods and mattresses amongst the black bags. Despicable.

I’m 100% on the Bin Lads side, I’m a former Council Gardener & Estate Ranger for my local Parks and Countryside when I used to live in Oldham. We went on strike when the Labour Government went after our pensions! Not at all impressed, I spent the day walking in the Peak District that day. When the government went after fire fighters pension, I was living in Chesterfield, I went up to a group of the fireman who were stood near the roundabout as I was passing, shook there hands, thanked them for there hard work and told them to keep fighting because they deserved it, I told them I knew where they were coming from with me being ex public sector and being in the same situation.
