Guinness for Strength!!

I finally got the Guinness tattoo that I've been wanting for a long time. Can't really afford to be doing fun stuff like that, but we got my tax return and put the majority towards the car we're buying (which we should have later this week and get on the road this weekend which means a trip to see the kids is in the very near future!! yipppeeee!!!)

So, we went to Blue Horseshoe on a saturday. A guy named Robert Smith did the tattoo. He did a great job! Everyone in the place was going nuts for the tattoo and he wants me to come back when it's all healed up so he can photograph it again for his portfolio!! (it's 2 weeks old now and itchy as hell!)

It's actually a combonation of 2 Guinness posters...the Toucan usually says "lovely day for a Guinness"...the "Guinness for Strength" phrase comes from a poster featuring construction workers.

oh, and also included in this blog is Greg from work...who upon seeing a freshly poured Guinness on the bar at work, went for the "Guinness Goatee" instead of the more common "Guinness Mustache"!!
