The mystery of this is tantalizing, and as it often goes with you, it can go in a couple different directions. I prefer to think that the tattoo is in a not-so public place, while in a not-so accepted romance ;)

This is supposed to tickle the reader's curiosity! I hinted at a tattoo, and then the mind gets instinctively inquisitive. I will not spoil the fun by elaborating:) ~ Regards // paul

Did you ever have to make up your mind? Personally, I could never decide what tattoo I could live with all my life. I often think about the sagging tattoos in people's geriatric future. Your Monoku is a thought-provoker and I enjoyed it. So good to be here, reading you ... CayCay

Let me start by saying that I don't have a tattoo (though I am not totally against them!), so it has to be hers:) Glad that I set you on the musing trail. Also pleased to have you back...you have been missed:) ~ Regards // paul

Paul Callus

Hi Andrea! I started on the test, but stopped half way through because I had no answer for some of them! Perhaps I'll have another go, but I'm not ready to compromise:) Thank you for being adorable:) ~ paul

i like this one, paul! yes, many people do have those sneaky hidden tattoos...

Paul Callus
Date: 1/21/2016 1:00:00 PM

Thank you, Ilene:) Once I heard pupils excitedly describing the butterfly on teacher's back. Later I found out that it was a tattoo just above her behind...her top rode up as she had her back to them giving an explanation on the whiteboard!! // paul

It's true; erasing a tattoo is no joke. Usually it's the message behind the tattoo that becomes an embarrassment! ~ Hugs // paul
