My name is Mel. Here’s my picture, and my story.I got these done for the first time in 2008 I think, by a good friend in Australia.I always wanted something across my knuckles.Stay Down, because at the time I was doing Muay Thai, and I found that amusing to have it under the gloves. It’s also a fair warning for trouble makers.But mostly, because I wanted to remind myself that I wasn’t the one supposed to stay down in my life. Bullshit had to stay down. Eventually I’ll get CALM tattooed on my left hand, inside, so when I open my left hand and close the right one, one can read Stay Calm, because I need to remind myself of that too.Photo by Francis Beddok.

That is a cool tat from here in Aus. You could get calm on both hands, “Calm down”, “Stay Calm”. I have ride free across my knuckles
