The traditional English breakfast includes most (or all) of the following foods: bacon, fried eggs, baked beans, sausages, tomatoes (often fried), mushrooms (also fried), toast, juice and tea or coffee. The breakfast is known as a "full" breakfast not only because it starts with a full plate, but because it leaves you with a full stomach. Despite its size, however, it is still only a meal and won't last forever no matter how you feel for the first hour or so after one.
For a never-ending breakfast, you'll have to consider what one man in Wales did. Dayne Gilbey, 19, volunteered to get a full English breakfast tattooed on the top of his head by tattoo artist Blane Dickinson. Dickinson put out a call for a volunteer because he wanted to do something different and because tattoos are often very personal, it can be hard to find interested parties for more unusual designs. Dickinson came up with the breakfast idea four years ago and has been waiting ever since. The tattoo took six hours to do and, if he had charged for it (which he didn't) would have cost £350 ($685).

I thought the same as Nik! "Oh man, what a hilarious idea!... oh man, what a badly drawn tattoo!"

I'm all for ink, (I have a sleeve and a half myself) but this is one of the worst tattoos I've ever seen. Subject matter aside, this "artist" shouldn't be allowed to tattoo.

Yep. Aside from the odd subject matter, the art is absolutely attrocious.

Hardcore dedication to breakfast. o_O Like csc said, at least he can grow it out, or maybe shell out some monies to have a better artist go over it again. I've seen some really shoddy tattoos in my lifetime, and I've seen someone covered up wonderfully by a good artist. A little refining and his tat could be shining. ;P

This is a work of art, and all art is personal, look beyond your own limitations.
