Reason #19878352 NOT to get a tattoo in Thailand...

Postby Chantel » Tue Nov 13, 2007 3:59 pm

A GEELONG Cats supporter wanting a permanent reminder of the team's AFL triumph has been left by a tattoo saying his team were "Gay Premiers 2007".

In a celebratory trip to Thailand last week "Neville", a dyed-in-the-wool Cats fan, had 15 cans of beer to ease the pain of the 5-½ hour experience.

He paid $150 for the privilege. And to ensure the Phuket tattooist got it right, he wrote down exactly what he wanted on his right and left arms, under the headings "right arm" and "left arm".

"I gave them a piece of paper and wrote down on the right arm, I wanted the new Geelong emblem they've got out now ... and Day Premiers 2007."

"I gave them a week to work it all out.

"And on the left arm side I wrote "left arm" and the two grandkids names and Night Premiers 2006"
The tattooist took him literally - almost.

Now he has "right arm" written on his right arm, just above "Gay Premiers 2007" because the tattooist marked in "Gay" instead of "Day".

"I couldn't believe it," Neville told 3AW radio.

"When I first walked in he showed me the picture of the thing, and I just looked at a picture and didn't really take notice of the words.

"My son-in-law walked in halfway through it ... and told me what happened, and I thought 'you're joking!'," he said.

"Once they'd written right arm, I told them you might as well have left arm on the other one – and make it a bit fun."

yeah, one of my rfriends is moving there in 3 weeks for work for 1- 3 years.
Not really their (couple) thing exactly either, but just doing it for the greater getting ahead work thing. It's a big call and would definately way up your priorities quick sticks.

I don't think I could do i at this point. maybe in a few years after I was satisfied with what I was doing here as well..

Yeah I was pretty keen before I went.... but I just didn't really figure just how full on it was.... Plus I'm pretty happy with my job here for the moment, and I met a 5'10 blonde cheerleader who I am currently obsessed with so it just doesn't seem like the right time for me at the moment!
