cragman 2,841 Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Just seen a programme on telly and a guy being interviewed had an ear ring in each ear. He was middle aged...about 40 odd years old. I thought he looked a bit of a knut! Two great bling diamonds in his ears. Surely they've had their day on fellas. Ear rings for wusses or pusses? :kiss: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scalesntails 118 Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Depends really. If you're a pirate then I don't see the problem. If you're not a pirate then why bother? Either way I don't care as it doesn't hurt me. Pirates used to have a gold earring so that if they bodies were washed up on shore it would be enough to pay for a proper burial.
