This weather is absolutely GLORIOUS !!
Great for the tan...and that spin on the bike Thumbs Up

I am SO brown !!...but, I agreed to take my kid swimming tomorrow, so had a last minute top up today on the tops of my legs....
The sun must have been very strong, because it burnt right through my cream and my legs are a slight red colour atop now! Embarassed
Not too bad though....

Had a run on Blue Bettie to Wolvey and surrounding this evening....very nice Surprised

Has nothing but a vest top on underneath my thin summer jacket....wonderful breeze ! Very Happy

It is days like this that make me happy.

I am now sat...with my pal...
vodka...OJ..LOTS of ice Thumbs Up

Oh yes....anyone wanna pop round ?? Wink

I love being tanned, but the disappointing thing was that I didn´t actually need to travel to Gran Canaria to get it. Rolling Eyes

My tan has faded to a rather subtle 'mucky' colour. I love standing next to my red-headed friend who remains pale as milk no matter how much she tries to tan Very Happy

It was upsettingly sunny, some of us were at work though...

oddly people decided they needed office rubbish so bad they had to come in to the shop on a lovely day like this, so i stayed by the door and unto every customer said...

"look around at this lovely weather, we live in england, this will last but a few days and you want paper and pencils? GET THE HELL OUT OF MY SHOP FRICKIN SICKKK IDTIOTS!!! NOOOOOWWW!!!"

then chased persistent offenders with a big stick covered with blutak and push pins...

i really did*.....


*lies, but common what kind of sick freak is shopping for rulers and desks and stuff on a day like it was today, work all week in your office, the sun is out, its beautiful, you take your smiling family... to look at pens... for at least an hour.... i mean come on....

Why do you create a new thread on a daily basis explaining what mind numbing things you have been up to?
Why do all the men here suck up to you and reply to all of your threads like they actually care about your trip to the supermarket where nothing of interest happend, or the time you went out on your bike for the 7th time and wobbled a bit?

Go get a blog and stop spamming up the forum with such dribble.

Having just got back from Germany yesterday I'm all burned. Sad Standing in a field for 2 days solid in 32 degrees C without a single cloud in the sky is more than I can handle of good weather.

I don't do the tanning thing - I prefer to stay gothily pale and interesting...
...plus the fact I burn way too easily. Embarassed

At least I won't wrinkle as much as you sun worshippers - tee hee!!! Laughing
