Tattoos in the Casino Gardens


Not a Monte Carlo lady today but a visiting English couple showing off their tattoos.

Tatoos always fascinate me - body art - and I often wonder what I'd have done if I were brave enough to stand the pain.  But I'm not ...

    This raises the question:
    Can you get a tattoo in Monaco?
    Are there any tattoo shops there?

    I wonder if you have to cross over to France for tats.

  3. President and Michelle Obama have said that they made a family pact with their daughters that if either of them get a tattoo, everyone in the family must get the same tattoo in the same place.

    Once I was defending a deposition of a witness who was retired, and he showed up in a short sleeve shirt with a tattoo that said "Shirley" on his forearm. The questions from the other attorney and his answers included the following:

    Q: Are you married?

    A: Yes.

    Q: Is you wife's name Shirley?

    A: No. Shirley is my ex-wife . Big mistake.

    Q: The tattoo or the wife?

    A: Both.

  5. Tattoos are a fashion. Fashion is temporary but tattoos are permanent. Go figure!
