This is the first picture of a British groom-to-be whose stag do saw a homeless man paid £90 to have his name and address tattooed on his forehead.
James Blake, 36, of North Shields, North Tyneside, is believed to be the stag on the lads’ trip to Benidorm where cash was allegedly handed to the Polish rough sleeper.
The group are reported to have bumped into Tomek on a night out in the Spanish resort and escorted him to a tattoo parlour to have the inking.
They ordered the man to get ‘Jamie Blake, North Shields, N28’ tattooed on his forehead, but he was unable to complete the tattoo due to the pain.

Today there was no answer when MailOnline visited Mr Blake’s home in North Shields, and it is believed he is out of the country with his wife Kerry Clay, a dinner lady at a local school, and their two children.
A neighbour said he had been on a trip to ‘Benidorm or somewhere like that’.
His father Brian Blake, 77, from Northallerton, North Yorkshire, told MailOnline: ‘He won’t be going on anymore stag dos in the near future and we’ll leave it at that.’
Sickening images taken in the tattoo parlour show the man lying flat on his back on a chair while a lamp shone light on his forehead.

Tomek threw up a ‘peace sign’ while he stared straight at the ceiling. The image was shared to Facebook by the tattoo parlour, but it was quickly deleted.
A photograph taken later showed that the tattooing was stopped two letters into ‘North Shields’, so it reads: ‘Jamie Blake No’.
The story has sparked outrage, and local businesses are even discussing the possibility of paying to get the tattoo removed.

Karen Malin Cowles, who knows Tomek, told the Daily Star: ‘What they have done to this man is utterly inhuman and akin to abuse.
‘I’m appalled that a group of grown men would take advantage of someone in such a vulnerable position. They have left a human being scarred for the rest of his life.’
Getting a tattoo on your head or face is considered one of the most painful places to get inked as it can create an uncomfortable sensation in the skull.
Other painful places that can be extremely painful to get tattoos include fingers, the rib cage and spine.
