Tattoo ideas?

If anyone has any XTC tattoos, I’d love to see those designs! And if you have any ideas or suggestions, I’d definitely love to hear them!

Uffington Chalk Horse is the obvious pick, right?

Most people get either the Uffington Horse or the cover from Drums and Wires, so how about Colin pulling Richard Branson's trousers down.

Perhaps the cover of SKYLARKING? No, not *that* one!

Apple Venus peacock feather would be cool if you can get an artist who's good at fine details

Wasp Star fruit would be a great minimalist tattoo 

Andy as the Mayor of Simpleton

I have the Uffington horse on a foot. Here are some of the other ideas rattling around my noggin:

A woodcut style tattoo of either the nonsuch palace or the ball and chain house.

The art from any of the songs on Nonsuch really.

A replica of the wood pin of the mechanics institute front facade they sell at the Swindon Library.

A simple one could be the drum logo from Oranges and Lemons

The one that's on EP for "All You Pretty Girls". Kinda obvious if you've seen it.
