What Is It?

[Caran]

Went to Gloucester today, at the traffic lights we were stopped outside a tattoo parlour. On the window was written all the things they have on offer. There was one item I cannot begin to understand. "Cremation Tattoos" what the heck are these?

I believe they mix the ashes in the tattoo ink. Bit morbid.

[mazie]

They use the ashes of your loved one, mix it with the ink and then do the tattoo Caran. Here's a link

Not quite as bad as what was posted the other day on here - your loved ones ashes in a ***.

ooops - Vibrator.

Oh I'd got visions of the dead body having a tattoo before the cremation and I couldn't make sense of that!
Thanks for the info on that everyone.

[Caran]

I've just passed the info on to OH, he nearly fell off the sofa when I told him the true answer and what I thought it was.

No reputable tattooist would ever do them.

along with the betting office, fast food, charity shops and pound shops every town now seems to have a tattoo parlour.
Have you noticed on these tv programmes about people skint & on the dole they all can afford tattoos along with the mega tv screen, the fags and the pedigree dog.

I have two tattoo shops near me and they advertise this as well. Who would want a tat of any kind? They're hideous things.

[ummmm]

What is the obsession with the size of other peoples TVs? They are probably on the never never...
