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."

I was only a kid at the time so I cant remember all that much but I think it was something to do with me telling my Gran I didnt believe in god.

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

On the breasts of a Bar Wench from Yale
Was tattooed the price of Pale Ale
Whilst across her behind
For the sake of the blind
Was the same message ..... but in Braille














Errrrrrrrr ........  She is out of the country I trust  scared2:
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

I'm just waiting for Nick to come in with "For the sake of the blind .... LARGE LETTERS" but of course it wouldn't rhyme.
