Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning or significance of them? If you do have tattoos, do you have any regrets about any of them?

Word Prompts – Satiate, Hazard and a start to a story
We had planned to meet under the bridge at midnight, but I forgot about daylight saving time. All my electronic devices automatically changed, but I it was my watch I checked at 11.30 the next evening. I waited for half an hour, the evidence they required in a simple A4 folder.

Coffee – Five Ways
Five ways I like my coffee I love the flavoured Beanie coffee. My favourite are the sweet flavours like jam, biscuit, and Irish cream. I always buy a latte after I go shopping with my husband.
