I used to be a sun worshipper - even applying coconut oil and other oils to get more brown! I just hope I got away with it as I haven't had any problems so far!

Anyway I'm much more sensible now. I like to feel the sun on me, but find I get overheated much more quickly these days. By choice it would be the Olive Tree for me and a nice cool drink, sunglasses and a good book (but I'm much too busy working and have just popped in for a break!).

However I do love to be brown - I look and feel so much better. My plan this year is to try and do it more gradually with about a factor 8/15 depending on sun strength.

Always had a tough skin and tanned easily, but it seems none of us can get away with what we used to. Besides I want to try and keep the wrinkles at bay. I have noticed that a lot of ladies who have done a lot of sunbathing seem to have very wrinkly skin, and not just on their faces! I think I'll use a touch a fake tan to acelerate the tanning process and be careful.
