Tattoos of trucks

I’ve never actully seen one of these done yet until tonight.
I’ve actully got a tattoo very relevant to a certain employment I once had, non trucking related though :wink:

Surely somebody on this site must have the Scania Griffin on their forearm somewhere on this forum?

Is that photo for real or a wind up?

cool guy! I bet the girls love him!

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

very professional job that, must have taken hours.

Transfers dont count. :laughing: :laughing:

Once headed up a training team that didn’t know each other, but got stuck together and sent out on the road together for 2 years. I had a team build idea of us going away the weekend before our first job, (and Safeway could pay off bills without Morrisons authorisation at that point) so off we went to the Moat House at West Brom. Lovely leisure club.

One of the young ladies wasn’t the slimmest, but every curve was where any man would want it.

I’m actually very shy, so I had a few drinkies to assist the bonding of the team on my part.

Said lady ended up in the Sauna with a few of us.

Jesus Christ! Saunas and booze are not supposed to mix, oops.

Tat right at the base of her back.

Me (half cut) “Is that Chinese for No Entry?”

Total silence. Could have crawled up my own arse.

Night went a bit quiet, everyone went a bit subdued, casual small talk, early nights all round.

Midnight, knock on my door. Said young lady. Half expected a “can’t work with you” chat

Didn’t happen :wink:

And no, it didn’t mean that.

We still text, all these years on :wink:

Not 'cos of the subject, but that is one of the worst tattoo’s i have ever seen (and the saddest)
I remember a few yrs ago,Mr Vain put a photo up of one of his mates, who had a griffin tattoo. If i could find it i would put a link up. (I thought it was bloody awful)
And there was a picture in the free truck paper, or one of the truck magazines, years ago now, of a bloke who had his XF95 tattoo’d on his back, cant remember the name of the firm at the min.
Edit.The XF bloke was from D&P from Hull

Didn’t he drive a daf though?

iirc wasnt there a guy in Hull a few years ago had a Xf Daf tattoo on his back. Full size Jobby. D&P seems to ring a bell.
