is anyone elses mn going r eally slow

Mamazon · 14/03/2008 21:54

i was the first in my family to get one....now they all have them.
my younger brother is covered on them now, though nothing quite as beautifull as Mr shadows.

the one i want after my ankle will have to wait until next summer.
Its a big vine that runs from my knee to my under arm.

it will take about 15 hours so will take a good couple of months to complete (you need to allow healing time between work)
and is gonna cost a small fortune....though thankfully my artist is a friend now and i get a discount because i always have customised designs and give him the copyright and permission to use the photo's

wannaBe · 14/03/2008 21:56

i read in one of ds's mags about this metal bloke who had a tat on his head. he has now grown his hair, but said it will be a shock for the people in the old folks home when he is old

Mamazon · 14/03/2008 21:57

I have one on my hairline on my kneck.

Its tiny and you can't even see it unless i have my hair up and your really looking.

its my Grandads initials.

the head must be agony. there is no flesh there at all.
my kneck wasn't too bad as the skin where i have it is quite thick

Blu · 14/03/2008 22:01

DS had some man letting them touch cockroaches in his school! And a millipede, a tree frog, a stick insect and a snake.

Taliesintraction · 14/03/2008 22:01

Hey,

You have all stopped being rude and insulting based on no personal knowledge.

Well done

Consider your legs pulled

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:02

Mamazon · 14/03/2008 22:05

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:06

wannaBe · 14/03/2008 22:07

when I lived in south africa we had a cobra in our back garden. I wasn't in any hurry to touch that.

Candlewax · 14/03/2008 22:08

I bet you don't get burglars Mamazon!

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:08

i just would love to stroke on. to see how it feels

Mamazon · 14/03/2008 22:10

i have 3 here at the moment. they are my brothers, im watching them while he decorates.
one of his females is pregnant so i will be getting one once they are born.

I used to have a lizzard but had to rehome him when ds was younger, he kept pulling at him and he was getting too stressed

Ds adores teh snakes though and he is old enough now and been around them long enough to know how to treat them.

wannaBe · 14/03/2008 22:11

there's no way I could have a snake. I couldn't handle the frozen mice in my freezer . Imagine sending ds in to get out some chicken nuggets and ... .

ds wants a rabbit though

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:11

we had a staff
had to rehome as dd was scared
shame she loves dogs now

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:13

wow there is a funny god man on the side of the screen

wannaBe · 14/03/2008 22:15

get her a puppy 2shoes, go on you know you want to .

Mamazon · 14/03/2008 22:16

the mice aren't my favourate part i must admit.

the ones he has now are ok. he used to have one that wouold only strike feed, you actually had to wriggle the mouse about to make out it was alive or teh snake wouldn't feed.

We keep the mice in a plastic container with a bright red lid.
the DC's know exactly what they are inside it.

they have been bought up around them as my brother has always had them so they aren't unusual to them

wannaBe · 14/03/2008 22:18

dh has tropical fish and it was enough that he had a bag of live bloodworm in my fridge for three days.

2shoes · 14/03/2008 22:18

no way. it would have to be a staff and all that traing.....yikes.

Blu · 14/03/2008 22:20

wannabe - get a guinea pig. much easier to look after than rabbits. And they squeak in such a pleasing way. Rabbits just destroy their hutch with gnawing.
