Title: Roopermarket
Post by: Grumpmeister on February 07, 2008, 11:39:12 AM
And the moral of the story is never to get a tattoo with your current other half's name on it, especially if you want it done in Chinese.

Quote
When teenager Joanne Raine had her boyfriend's nickname "Roo" tattooed on her stomach it was supposed to be a sign of her undying love.
The 19-year-old from Darlington paid £80 for the Chinese artwork in 2004 and was delighted with the results.

That was until she showed it off in a Chinese takeaway and found out it actually spelled "supermarket."

The pair have now split up, but Miss Raine said she will keep the tattoo because she cannot afford a new one.

She said: "I did it because I wanted to show him how much I loved him and he had one done as well.

"I did not think about whether it meant forever. I'm just going to have to keep it as I can't afford to get another one done."

Reasonable. I regard Darlington, along with Redcar and Barrow, as a cruel and unusual punishment. You could sue!

Tricky person yer Chinese tattooist .... mate of mine walked around for years with Good Luck, Happiness and Wealth tattooed on his arm in Chinese characters .... done one drunken night in Hong Kong.
Took a Chinese Waitress in Oxford to explain that it really said "Fuck off whitey" or at least the Chinese equivalent..
