Heh, I intend to, once I'm done deliberating.
and, oooh, posting links like Calypso Tattoo isn't helping me,
especially as it's driveable from here. What did you have done? Pics on
Flickr or elsewhere?

Bad phone cam pic on Flickr (private but you should be able to see) and
more to come. Dan really is good - it was all drawn freehand and took
longer than the actual tattooing. The man's a perfectionist. :)

The only problem I recall hearing with Prep H ointment (as opposed to the
gel) is that it contains chemicals that can act as a bleach. Would need to
do a check on the current list of ingredients to double check this - if
you've got a choob handy it'd be interesting to see whether this hypothesis
is true or not!

I'll have a look later, but very recently I haven't been able to find
it at all so you may not be able to buy it now.

Yes. By the toes and inner and outer parts of the foot were very sore
at the time. Fine now though although the itching has yet to start! :)

I think seeing his work on BME/IAM is one of the few times I thought
that site useful.

dark ages its just hony pidgeons beaks and rabbits arse holes. My mate who
