Something always comes along

Your Dad is a star Lyns [:)]

I love the sun, I use high factor but still go red. Although it does go brown in a day or two. Hubby tans in seconds..which makes me sick [}:)]

[kallis3]

I always go red in patches - usually around the edge of my clothing! I must admit to sitting out in the sun whenever I can, just to get a bit of colour!

[MrsKnight]

Boys have never been burnt or got patches yet! Must be lathering it on.

Me! I am a patchy mess normally, with lots of moles n freckles, I hate them!

[Julie]

I get a huge freckle on my nose [:I] it looks like a smudge of dirt[:(]

[MrsKnight]

Everywhere, Julie, Everywhere!!! N they dont disappear when the sun goes - they stay! Along with my many moles that appear along with them!

[kallis3]

I had freckles on my face as a kid, but they are long gone. I keep hoping that the ones that appear on my arms will join up and turn me brown![:D]

[MrsKnight]

He! He! I thought the same thing before!

[kallis3]

My hubby and my daughter turn a nice shade of brown. I'm always jealous.

I use factor 50 as I've always used it on my Daughter and now my grandchildren and saves buying two lots. Works for me x

[Julie]

We use high factor suncream as a norm. My younger sister has an extreme allergy to the sun. She would love to be able to sit out in the sunshine, but sadly its not an option for her.

[Shining]

I get bad heat rash but can cope with it! lol x

[Julie]

My sister is so brave, she has to totally cover up from the sun. She uses special make up, creams, bath salts etc...yet she never complains!

[kallis3]

I do use suncream, but will always move into the shade after a while. The worst thing for me is my feet - they have been burned a few times so I always cover them up with a towel now.

Sorry about your sister Julie. Must be awful.

[Shining]

That's not good Julie x

[Julie]

Oh please don't feel sorry for my sister, she'd kill me [:D]

Its something she, from the age of 9 yrs old and us (her siblings) have learnt to live with, no big deal. My Mum made sure my sister wouldn't miss any of her childhood and we just adapted to make it happen.

There's another case in britain that suffers from the same disorder and was well publicised....thankfully, my Mum made sure my sister had a "normal" childhood.

My sister is happily married and has 3 children..full credit to my Mum I say!
