Got a Bond inspired tattoo.

For the past few months i toyed with the idea of getting a tattoo. But i didnt want anything that was really trashy or massive. I wanted something clean, simple and easily hidden. When it comes to picking a tattoo there were obviously two important things i had to figure out: where i want it and what i want. Again, i wanted a location that could be easily hidden and not really obtrusive or ridiculous. I finally found the perfect location when i saw this pic of DC at comic con in 2011 where his inner right arm tattoo was visible (one of a few that he has) and i immediately loved the location. So with the spot chosen i had to now find something that i wanted that not only would fit there but wasn't something i wouldn't mind having for the rest of my life.
A few months after choosing the location, a light bulb went off in my head as i headed to the Bond exhibit at the international spy museum. I always loved the scene in Skyfall when Bonds running to the courthouse as M recites the final lines from Tennyson's "Ulysses" poem. I loved the poem, and the meaning behind it, which is summarized in the final lines pretty much means never give up until you have achieved what you have set out to do - against all odds. So i chose the final lines for the tattoo itself and couldn't be happier with the results.

Love it!
Yes indeed. Why not?
I have only ever met two other members from the forum so I doubt we will clash.
