Need recommendations for cheap piercing shops around North Yorkshire,as the one I've been to is £20,which is ludicrous

I think you should get your dc's nose pierced at the same time then get a chain that links from nose to ear.

FFS, a rusty safety pin will do the job just fine.

disreputable · 03/06/2012 16:14

just do it yourself with a needle and a potato

you dick

How about a tattoo while you're at it?

Dropdeadfred · 03/06/2012 16:15

Uuuuuuurrrggghh

My friend did his with a cornetto and a fork.

Just use that.

Frozen peas and a drawing pin?

MrsTerryPratchett · 03/06/2012 16:17

How do you do it with a Cornetto?

roundtable · 03/06/2012 16:17

Nail gun? Hmm

disreputable · 03/06/2012 16:19

I mean, £20 for a couple of measly pinpricks

I'll lop her foot off for a fiver, how's that?

theincredibequeenofwands · 03/06/2012 16:19

The cornetto was to numb the ear.

YouOldSlag · 03/06/2012 16:20

I hope this is a joke.

Anyway six month old babies are so beautiful that bits of metal in their ears cannot ever improve on the beauty nature gave them.

IQuiteLikeVodka · 03/06/2012 16:20

disreputable how rude,I'm asking advice,I'd rather a recommendation than just turning up somewhere and paying ridiculous amounts of money for a couple of tiny holes

make sure and have copiuos amount of dozol in her so she wont be making a show of you and crying.

MrsTerryPratchett · 03/06/2012 16:21

Ooooohhhh, to numb the ears. I hope it was wrapped, otherwise that could get messy.

PandaWatch · 03/06/2012 16:23

I'll do it for a tenner

raindropsinmyhair · 03/06/2012 16:23

I had three in each ear by that age- nowt wrong with it

Grin
disreputable · 03/06/2012 16:25

ok ok you are right

here's a recommendation

punch holes in your own fucking body

YouOldSlag · 03/06/2012 16:25

Op- WHY?

scuzy · 03/06/2012 16:25

actually pierce two holes in each and hang a chain, be great for keeping the soother on!

Sarcalogos · 03/06/2012 16:26

IQuiteLikeVodka · 03/06/2012 16:26
