Tattoo you

Tattoo and body-piercing fan Elaine Dickinson, right, poses with a friend for pictures during London's International Tattoo Convention on Friday. The first-ever London convention kicked off as more than 150 of the world's best tattoo artists from as far as Australia, Japan, Greece and Italy arrived to share their craft with veterans and newcomers to body art. Participants can schedule appointments or stop by for a spur-of- the-moment tattoo, depending on the artist. Organizers expect at least 15,000 people to attend this weekend.Oct 09, 2005
