Heehee. I vote for shoulder blade. But it is your body and decision!
Have fun!0 -

See that was my problem. I want to get one somewhere I can see it...but somewhere other people can't unless I show them. And once again...NOT what you were thinking.
i never get this idea from people - why would you want a tattoo if you want to cover it up??impatience is a gift ........0 -

See that's what I mean. I decided on mine. Thought about it for months. Then changed my mind. I think I want one on the top of my chest now though. I can see it but most other people can't.~AKA Dave-of-the-dead~
I don't wanna think, I wanna feel

Maybe I should go for off the shoulder towards the front/chest?
... if you are really that undecided, you should be waiting and thinking on this - once its on its there for life, and theres nothing worse than regreting.
mine - location and design - were all decided months beforehand. All except my first, which i regret. so learn.impatience is a gift ........0 -

I've wanted this tattoo for a year... so the thought's been put in, don't you worry mate.
But the placement of it will cause me nightmares until I walk into the shop and say 'there'....'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'

Been there a million times talking with friends and family, no worriesI've made sure I've chosen a design which will still be significant to me when I'm 80.

Whatever happens I don't think I'll go for a central back tattoo.. It'll be further towards the left or right.'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'

I have one between the shoulder blades and it doesn't really hurt. If you have a good tattoo artist, tattooing is not really painful. (Oh.. and I've also been through childbirth without drugs... now THAT is pain!).
If you're having the labyrinth HLF, I would see it quite biggish, top of the back/over shoulder blade, leftish (heart side!).

THE DEED IS DONE..... It was fine, not painful... kind of like a sustained blood test.
It's beautiful work; top of the back, left shoulder blade. I'll get it up here when it's healed.'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'

I need to go out and get some cling film and Preparation H.... It's the aftercare I'm worried about.... It would've been nice to have the wife to take care of the constant moisturise/clingflim/all that malarkey, let's see if I can reach it myself'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday.

Na-ah... you want Tattoo Goo... that stuff's awesome and natural, avaliable in small lip balm like tins and tubes, if your tattooist's any good they'll stock it. Bout £5.Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...
