The body art fan, from Hornchurch in Essex, told Daily Star that his least favourite question is \u201cdid that hurt?\u201d<\/p>\n
He replied: \u201cI just will not answer that any more. Just obviously it hurts.Yes, it did hurt. What more can I say.\u201d<\/p>\n
Keith, 67, also says it\u2019s \u201cvery boring\u201d when strangers say things like \u201cI bet that cost a lot of money, didn\u2019t it\u201d.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
While he\u2019s lost count of how much he\u2019s spent over the years, he knows it\u2019s in the thousands.<\/p>\n
So if you\u2019re planning to strike up conversation with the dad in public, make sure you\u2019re armed with more creative comments.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cWhat I would like is people asking \u2018who\u2019s the artist that did that?\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cOr \u2018what studio did you go to for that one?\u2019 Or \u2018what do you call that sort of style?\u201d<\/p>\n

Keith got his first tattoos at 17, but underwent several skin grafts four years later to remove them.<\/p>\n
He then lived tattoo-free until he was 52 when he suddenly decided he missed his old body art.<\/p>\n
So he went back to the tattoo parlour to reinvent himself but this time took the look to new extremes.<\/p>\n
From having body art removed as a young man, Keith went full circle \u2013 tattooing most of his body, even his eyelids.<\/p>\n
Fifteen years later, there is now next to no skin left for him to cover.<\/p>\n

Keith "enjoys the attention" of being heavily inked and doesn't plan on stopping any time soon.<\/p>\n
He added: "I'm still getting tattooed every month or so and I've got gaps I'd like to fill in.<\/p>\n
"When you've got as many tattoos as I do, you only see the gaps, you don't see the tattoos.<\/p>\n
"You only want to fill them as the gaps stand out. <\/p>\n
"So I'm just in the process of filling them in until I feel complete."<\/p>\n
