    If it isn't salt for the roads, it's sunscreen for our Irish skin.

    This country has gone to the dogs. The government dropped the ball. Won't someone think of the children. Rabble rabble.

    Worth stocking up on that stuff off-peak, especially if you're like me burn in about 15 seconds.

    Yup, smearing margarine is all we can do now.

    A Spanish friend of mine heard that smearing yourself in Coca Cola speeds tanning.

    It certainly speeded her up and got her great exercise as she was being attacked by hundreds of wasps!

    As a person of the shadows i am always well stocked up on sun cream. I suppose it's good to see people are using it, skin cancer is a real problem in this country.

    Try vegetable oil.

    If vegetable oil is made from vegetables and corn oil is made from corn, then what is baby oil made from?

    Crap!

    I bought a large tube of la Roche posay 50 sun cream last year. I'm just coming to the end of that now and will need to buy a new sun screen this weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,770 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Thankfully I have plenty of factor 50+ sunscreen.

    Will sell if the price spikes :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭12Phase


    I find P20 amazing for just general use and Ambre Solaire in more sensitive areas.

    At least P20 is easy to put on your scalp if you've short hair or less hair than you used to have.

    I just mostly stay in the shade tho

    And where does fairy liquid come from?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,455 ✭✭✭maudgonner


    I'm off to the shops to bulk buy umbrellas at knock-down prices.

    It'll be raining again by next weekend and I'll make a killing :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 694 ✭✭✭Broken Hearted Road


    I need to buy a new bottle of sun cream this weekend. Is there any brand that doesn't stain? I'm sick of leaving big white marks every where - on my clothes, in cars, couches, the lot.

    What's that called, a Furnish? :pac::pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 952 ✭✭✭s4uv3


    Yeah, no.

    We have dozens of bottles left in my place and there isn't a hint of a panic. Be grand.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭12Phase


    Just don't accidentally put on the self tan version when misreading the label in Italian while on holiday...

    Happened me once !

    WD 40 will do fine and all your aches will go at the same time.
