A great-gran who became the oldest woman in the UK to get a tattoo decided to go under the needle again and now sports three inkings - at the age of 99.

Hilda West first got the tattooed initials of her late husband Ernest and son David on her wrist back in 2019, aged 94.

Since then, she has added a three inch butterfly to her upper arm also in memory of her husband and now plans to get another to mark her 100th birthday next February.

Great-gran-of-eight Hilda went to her local tattoo parlour near the care home where she lives in Kenilworth, Warks., with the help of her carers.
