Rebellious Sadie Sellers
disappeared to get her first inking at the grand old age of 79.
A great-grandmother who
went missing from her care home turned up in a tattoo parlour.
Son Tony Sellers was
baffled when he arrived for his daily visit to see his mum, only to discover an
empty wheelchair in her room. He eventually tracked his mum down to a tattoo
parlour in Londonderry, Northern Ireland.
And when Sadie was asked
what her family would think of the tattoo, the retired civil servant said:
"I
don't f***ing care".
Sadie
said:
"When
you get to my age, you just have to live life to the full every day.
"I
was talking about it with Samantha (her granddaughter) for a couple of weeks
and she showed me hers. She came in one day after her holiday and I just
thought: 'Well I'll get one too'.
"I'm
absolutely made up with mine. I asked the fella how long it would take and he
said it had finished five minutes ago. I never felt a thing. He just laughed at
me."
