Borneo 2006
2006 Sarawak trip, the team go tribal with a traditional hand tapped tattoo, expertly done by Ernesto from Borneo Headhunter tattoo in Kuching Sarawak.

"So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life."
