Thanks for another pictoral journey, Robertson! I thought early on in the voyage that your friend Jim's belt looked a bit familiar  Glad to hear he enjoyed the "freedom."
I got a wee bit excited as I read the caption about the fella's tattoos before the picture had fully downloaded. There has been a recent explosion (or so I've read) of quality tattoos and tattoo parlors in Scotland. So, I was hoping to see some results of that. That fella's tattoos look like they were done with a masonary nail!

Bradley,
We were commenting on the walk back that the guys tattoos looked about like prison tattoos. There was a tattoo/piercing parlor there in Dumfries. The tats I saw on the folks working there were well done and the pics in the window of repairs/coverups were well done as well. The flash I saw was mostly traditional tattoo pieces and a few tribal type. My wife and I only saw one guy walking around Fri that had Celtic tattoos and some tribal on the other arm.
YMOS,
Tony
