... where I can get my hands on a decent pic of the Stafford knot?

I turn the big 3-oh at the end of the year, and Im going to brand myself in honour of the occasion as well as my Stafford roots, and get it tattooed on my back. Thing is, I needs a decent pic to take to the tattooist! :)

Any help muchly appreciated!

I can only really suggest Googling it or, preferrably getting somebody with the right software (Illustrator or Freehand if you want a nice bold design) to trace one for you.

Unless anyone's got one they could scan.

Or you could just get "ST16 ROCKS, DUDE!" written on your forehead.

Hi Jimbob :)

Tried Googling it, but couldnt get a decent or clear pic, but will look into the software options. Having my forehead tattooed? Let alone with 'ST16 ROCKS, DUDE!' ... thanks but might pass on that one. :P

Oh I was certainly serious. Im still a cleanskin so was a little hesitant at first, but have made up my mind and its off to the tattoo parlour I go.

I think my Grandmother would be proud of me wanting to formally recognise my Stafford roots.... Im just glad she isnt alive to see that I plan on doing it in the form of a permanent tattoo :P

I had the Stafford Knot tattooed on my shoulder a couple of years ago, I went to see him and explained what I wanted and he came back with a picture of the knot. So it might be worth just going in and asking them first. Good Luck.
