I have sunburn. :x

This is not fair.

I'm Scottish. I'm at home.

This isn't supposed to happen, not this way... i'm supposed to spend 2 weeks abroad in somewhere which is warm and come back looking like a lobster in a shade of red that would make chairman Mao feel inadequate.

Now I can stop traffic with the blinding glow of my arms, and melt tar by pressing it against the back of my neck.

Hrummph.

Well, as an aussie I can positivly say I know how you feel. :p

I find that alovera does a good job at easing the pain. There are a few products on the market that should ease your woes as well. ;)

I'm gonna rub it in (No pun intended) by saying how I /never/ get sunburned ^_^ I get tan instead. I'm incredibly lucky that way.

Ah, the joys of never being outside long enough to be in contact with sunlight for more than a few minutes :razz:

Actually, I tend to look as if I'm about to drop dead at any moment :razz: I'm pale and my eyes are sunken and voidlike.

*puts the red in redneck*

When I get sunburned(which happens quite rarely, cause I know how to dress to prevent it and stay comfortable at teh same time) I tend to brown down overnight.

I spent from 9-till 6:30 shovelling 20 bloody tonnes of rubble to fill up the back garden, that's how.......

If you had shifted 20 tons of garden material, you should be able to speak, much less type :razz:

I went swimming for an hour a day pretty much 4 weeks without fail this summer - I stayed pale. I was disappointed with the sun. We had words.
