OK, so I have Irish skin. Whiter than white that only burns at the slightest exposure to sun. Today i made the mistake of going outside with 70% cloud cover and trimming the weed patch around my mother-in-laws summer cottage. Utilikilt, T shirt, gloves, boots, with turned down hose. My neck, lower arms, and shins are sounding a four alarm fire. I can not sleep, so I am reading and posting here on X-marks. Kilted and shirtless, only out of the shower in a thrifty to the bedroom to get dressed. Outside is always a long sleeved shirt, unless I choose to really burn up bad.
I envy those that can expose some skin to that hot orb..I am not one of them.

I just want to ask that everyone be very mindful when going out in the sun. I have to see a dermatologist twice a year. It's not really fun when he says, "You're going to leave that mole with me so I can look closer at it." He's taken off three so far. Luckily only one was close to being melanoma. I have several of the pre-conditions for skin cancer: blue eyes, several sunburns as a kid, lots of moles, etc. Now I follow what the Aussies say: Slip, Slap, Slop. Slip on a shirt, slap on a hat, and slop on some sunscreen. You would be wise to do the same.
