Can anyone work out this tattoo? It has my baffled, it's look like Chinese but I can't identify any of the characters.

Apologises for the small size.

laodai, thanks for the suggestion. I actually live very close to Chinatown and eat there every couple of months. I've yet to eat at Lao Sichuan, and will make it my next stop.

RJBerki, I'm pretty much harmless...but I've downloaded and saved your avatar just in case!

Nice Photoshop. i think it could work.

Calkins, make sure you eat at Lao Sichuan in Chicago (Chinatown south) before you go; It reminds me of China before the yuppies arrived.

Bazza & Rich...I think Jenny is just a front for the feelings you two have for each other! You both are in the UK, you can make it work:)

It's probably because she has her arms around me in my pictures, but in yours she got her arms folded. ;)

She's my wife! She's my wife! I had a picture with her first! Then Bazza stole her. Bazza posts more, so I see why he gets credit for being the one being with Jenny. Woe is me. ;)

Bazza, you know you are going to have to change that avatar some day. If Jen ever gets a serious boyfriend he may fly to UK just to punch you right in the eye.:-) Who knows. She may have one already. Do you sleep with a gun under your pillow? Oh yeah, that was that other british guy (James Bond). I would be very careful if I were you, but then you did say danger was your middle name. Or was it phillip? :-)

Let me add that if we are talking about looks, Jen wins. If we are talking about class, intelligence, character, and a good heart, I dont know much about these actresses, but they would have to be pretty special to even come close to JZ.

Is it still 拍马屁 (pai ma pi), if its true?

Well, I have to say one thing for you Baz, you do have good taste in women. I think I would sneak Shu Qi in between our Pod Queen and Gong Li however. Maybe evern Zhang Ziyi would go in there somewhere but Jenny is still head and shoulders above the rest. IMHO (I hope that means what I think it means :-) Did you see Miami vice (Gong LI)?. How about the transporter (Shu Qi) I also like Lin Di from cold Fairyland - something about that Pipa. Hope I spelled that right.

是不是有点断章取义?? may be there isn't this phrase at all...where does it come from?

www.xuezhongwen.net translates it as:

"Beijing adds Tianjin to lift."

Any of the above translations would make for a really great tattoo!

I think best translation of 京加津举 I can make is "capital and raising damp"

Calkins, just remembered I actually made a tattoo saying that on facebook. ;)

It's difficult to read, but I think it says "I love Jenny Zhu"! Sorry 巴泽, I couldn't resist. I enlarged and sharpened it a bit in PS...still difficult to read, but a little better.
