Is anyone actually sunbathing in this weather?

When I was young it was my mission to get a tan on holiday or even in the back garden whenever the sun came out. I could lie out for hours with factor 4. Everyone seemed to do it!

I just sat in the garden for 5 minutes and it was unbearable so I have come back in to watch the tennis with the fan blasting.

I’m only twenty minutes drive from a beach but haven’t sat on the sand for years.

Do people still sunbathe or like to tan these days? Are you lying in your back garden in the heatwave?

I've never liked sunbathing. If I'm out and it's hot, I'm in the shade enjoying the breeze. I use factor 50, but I'm still so tanned just from walking to work etc, my kids think I must be sunbathing. I always thought it seemed so boring lying in the sun, I can't even take a bath as it's too long doing anything.

Yep I have been. Loving this weather. Sit in my garden with factor 50 on, a bottle of water and my book
