Back to Saarbr\u00fccken again.<\/p>\n

Not just for cigars this time but to refresh and re-do my old Stones tattoo that I wear on my right ankle.<\/p>\n

It’s 40 years old and has lost almost all its colour. Faded away literally.<\/p>\n

I had it done as I like Rock & Roll and the Stones, but mostly because the tongue represents my “stuff it” attitude to any kind of authority.<\/p>\n

So I wanted to refresh the colour anyway and then I stumbled on the tongue with the Cuban flag colours ….<\/p>\n

What better than to have that added as the island means a lot to me….<\/p>\n

Having lunch this week with Salih I noticed a young and very good tattoo artist there, Will Body Art,<\/a> and asked if he could do the job – no problem he said and I got an appointment quickly.<\/p>\n

I drove there today, sunny and beautiful at 26 C, had a cigar at Salih’s<\/a> and a stroll through the old quarter, always nice and particularly so today as I had Mareike with me for a nice hour long chat on flying, cigars and Cuba. Really interesting.<\/p>\n

Will took an hour to completely re-do the tattoo and I sure clenched my teeth as it hurt like hell. I am sure they were listening to my cursing scream in Havana.<\/p>\n

The ankle is just skin and bone, no flesh so the needle really digs in deep there….<\/p>\n

But in the end it was more than worth the pain and I am quite happy with the job done.<\/p>\n

I took a tasty Chicken-Bacon-Avocado Burger home to the Irish pub and enjoyed my new tattoo with a fine CR Robusto after dinner.<\/p>\n

Taking this tattoo home to Cuba soon – happy !<\/p>\n
