Fan has a Tim Vine gag tattooed onto himself

A Tim Vine fan has had the set-up of one of the comic’s puns permanently inked on to his leg.

The man, who goes by the Twitter handle GothShaggy, posted an image of the tattoo, which depicts a hand-grenade covered in letters.

It’s a reference to Vine’s gag: 'I had an alphabet grenade. I thought, "if this goes off, it could spell disaster."'

The comic retweeted the image and said: ‘Thank you @GothShaggy for this honour. What a blast. Armed and dangerous. Look out he’s got a pun!’
