The Magpie tattoo - how to update?
The magpie tattoo on my ankle from 2010 needs an update, I am very please to say - but how to best do it?
Another magpie on the other side?
Add 2 premiership cups?
Add the years, yes, but then how? Words, cursive, roman numerals, binary code?
I'm so pleased to be bothering my non-supporter friends, earnestly asking them for their advice

ditto, im thinking on my hip, easier to hide!! im 60 next week!RudeBoy wrote:My son made me promise we'd both get a Magpie ankle tatoo if we won the Flag! Yikes, I've never had a tatoo, but it looks like we'll be heading down to McStay's old man's tatoo shop soon to get inked. At 66, I'm rather old to be getting my first tatoo, but a promise is a promise.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

Craig McRae’s Copeland Trophy speech:
“There’s still a long queue in the tattoo line. It’s a chance to smell the roses tonight, but I guarantee you, save room for more tattoos. We’ve got plenty of work to do and we’re going to continue to get better every day”

I got the standard small magpie in 1990 on my shoulder and tattoo quality has come a long way since then. I covered it over in 2010 with bigger and better version complete with the wreath around the outside and 1892 at the bottom. Going back again on Monday for a new one on my lower forearm. Mocked it up for my tattooist; tried to upload a photo but can’t get it to work. Google the WEG 1927 premiership poster and add a cup inscribed 2023 and you’ll get the gist. I’ll upload a photo if I can when it’s done.
