THE school run at a local primary school has been made significantly cooler and more exciting thanks to a mum sporting a daring neck tattoo.
Parents used to find collecting their children from a Bristol school profoundly mundane before the arrival of Nikki Hollis and her provocatively-inked neck.
Mum Emma Bradford said: “It used to be so dull. All we’d ever talk about was our kids or the weather like a bunch of boring middle-aged farts. Then Nikki appeared with her badass tat and really shook things up.
“She’s just so dark and mysterious. Some of the mums say she looks like a terrifying drug dealer, others a trendy Brooklyn barista. But whatever they think, we all agree she’s helped make the whole group appear a lot more chic.”
Donna Sheridan said: “When I first met Nikki I was simultaneously scared and excited by the powerful and dangerous energy she exudes. She’s actually a fairly quiet, softly-spoken woman – but that neck art tells you all you need to know about what a hellraiser she is.
“I want to win the respect of my peers like Nikki. That’s why I’ve booked an appointment to get a flaming king cobra tattooed on my left cheek later this month.”
Hollis, who got the tattoo at university, said: “I’m really very ordinary. But if they think I’m like Slash, Angelina Jolie and Machine Gun Kelly rolled into one maybe I can get out of manning the tombola at the Summer Fayre.”
