Woo hoo to meeting a bigger Alba family!!

Can't wait until then!!

Is their a possibility of getting ink during the tour?

Is anyone else interested?

Morven · « **Reply #1 on:** Wednesday 2 November 2011, 16:58 »

I would love to have some new ink. I've been thinking about my next one..I may be able to hold off until then....

Was talking to Jamesie @ richmond on Sunday. If enough people are willing tattoo may happen. So if you want a commemorative tattoo for this trip give a shout out.

I have been thinking about getting my first tattoo and had planned to get it fairly soon. But...I could wait until the trip...that would be an awesome souvenir!!!

darkreader · « **Reply #4 on:** Thursday 3 November 2011, 22:33 »

I've also been thinking about getting my first. Just don't know how brave I need to be. Is crying in pain allowed?

Woot! A new inking would be perfect...what a way to remember an unbelievable trip!!! Lets do it!

If I can do it, anybody can. I'm a ninny when it comes to pain, but I never had a problem getting a tat. I'm up to four and hoping to get the fifth in Scotland.

I am thinking I'd be game too but it would be a first for me too unless I go an get an ogham one I have been thinking of before

Baileycrone · « **Reply #8 on:** Saturday 5 November 2011, 22:26 »

Caryl, it isn't that bad. I have had nerve conduction tests that hurt worse. but then I've had ink that hurts and ink that doesn't. This will be my #7. (so what does that tell you?) The good news is when it is done, it is done!! and what a way to celebrate!! Just bring your own A&D ointment.

Ana and I will hold your hand!!

no se on the tat... I've never had one....

addictive · « **Reply #10 on:** Tuesday 8 November 2011, 18:17 »

The tattoo is a go! Jamesie posted on facebook. He talked to his guy & its set. The artist is the one the band uses in Glasgow. I'm sure we'll get more details.

ShedEvil1098 · « **Reply #11 on:** Tuesday 8 November 2011, 19:17 »

Awesome. As long as I have the cash for it. I'm down!!!

I might have to change my mind on getting one now... Kevin does such nice work... sooo tempting...

TARTANLASS · « **Reply #13 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 03:22 »

YAY for the tattoo!!

jamesie · « **Reply #14 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 14:39 »

Ok guys....am up for taking a party to Glasgow and having some ink done....in order to make it as easy as poss a " set " tour tattoo is the best way to go....all the folks from the tour a couple of yrs back got a one off custom piece...so i think that's the way to go again, it keeps it simple for Kev and makes the day flow alot better.....

Sound good?

Valkyrie73 · « **Reply #15 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 16:21 »

I'd be interested. Thinking it might be better to have done towards the latter part? as dealing with a fresh one the whole week might be distracting...?

How much should we set aside for it? And what kind of design?? And the "where" & hopefully "size" (might want it smaller than last tour groups) should be left up to the individual...

And Caryl, if Ana and I each hold a hand you'll be fine. (or you can borrow my trick n listen to my ipod really loud throughout

)

ShellBell222 · « **Reply #16 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 17:19 »

I am definitely interested, nothing better than a lifelong reminder of an amazing trip!!

Morven · « **Reply #17 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 17:37 »

I'm in. Do we get to find out what it looks like beforehand?

jamesie · « **Reply #18 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 18:55 »

Yeah, i'll have Kev design something and then i'll post it. It wont be that big....am reckoning 4inch by 4inch MAX!

It will be on the last day of the tour, Saturday am thinking.....so it will involve Aya & Myself taking the inkers from Edinburgh to Glasgow...we shall take the train....so no need to worry about dealing with fresh ink during the trip.

Sound ok?

Morven · « **Reply #19 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 21:36 »

Sounds just hunky dory

stirling · « **Reply #20 on:** Wednesday 9 November 2011, 21:42 »

Sheena and I are in! Sounds like a awesome plan

darkreader · « **Reply #21 on:** Thursday 10 November 2011, 00:51 »

Well Georgia, Ana and Legs, you could all comfort me. Any cool guys on the tour are welcome to do so too! Maybe a few pints would help as well. Let's see what the design looks like.

Lee-Ann · « **Reply #22 on:** Thursday 10 November 2011, 01:46 »

Sounds awesome!!!

TARTANLASS · « **Reply #23 on:** Thursday 10 November 2011, 03:52 »

I am definitely in!! Sounds awesome!!

Colette · « **Reply #24 on:** Friday 11 November 2011, 04:31 »

sounds good to me

Baileycrone · « **Reply #25 on:** Friday 11 November 2011, 15:03 »

Caryl,
Kev has such a light touch. He is the best one to give you your first ink! and what a sweet guy!
I'm just wondering if a lot of people sign up, they might need 2 artists to work us all in.

Can't wait!

Morven · « **Reply #26 on:** Friday 11 November 2011, 17:55 »

True, Kevin has the lightest touch of anyone I've experienced, and he is very, very nice. Last year we had a smaller version of the design that we could choose from. For those of us who need to hide their ink at the workplace.

Baileycrone · « **Reply #27 on:** Friday 11 November 2011, 20:45 »

and lets not forget the albannach boo boo butter!!!!

Morven · « **Reply #28 on:** Friday 11 November 2011, 21:39 »

True!

Make sure to stock up on plenty of Nach Boo Boo Butter!!

bjstewart · « **Reply #29 on:** Sunday 13 November 2011, 22:10 »

I'm in...it'll be my first. Think my 3 other traveling companions will be interested too!

Who's going to hold my hand?

Morven · « **Reply #30 on:** Monday 14 November 2011, 17:38 »

It sounds like there will be lots of people there

Don't worry, there's safety in numbers

and if it hurts we can go for some "pain treatment" afterwards

As a matter of fact, just the thought of having to come back makes me want some "pain treatment"

bjstewart · « **Reply #31 on:** Monday 14 November 2011, 19:13 »

Well I'm planning to win the single malt bottle for naming the coaches, so I'll share it with everyone....cool?

Morven · « **Reply #32 on:** Monday 14 November 2011, 21:32 »

Sounds like a plan!

SaharaMoon · « **Reply #33 on:** Monday 21 November 2011, 03:49 »

Sign me up for some ink please, it will be the perfect permanent Scotland souvenir

Though I have always avoided any sort of name or letters for my tats

The last day I'm figuring to be too hungover to scream and or protest much.. about much of anything.. bit of a whimper, soft moan perhaps,, hell it's been years since that's been heard! hah!
