Can you lie on a sunbed?

[Whyarepeopletalkingaboutchristmas]

When I was younger, I could lie on a sunbed for hours-big stack of magazines/books, music, a cocktail…heaven!
Now, not so much. I can’t sit still for long enough, can’t really concentrate on my book for long, even in the shade-def can’t lie directly in the sun
I just find it quite boring now-also can’t drink anymore as feel crap afterwards
Is it age-late 40’s, peri, having kids, what?

All the things I once loved doing, I can’t

I used to lay by the pool, book in hand years ago but I think having my son changed that. Now I can lay by the pool for a couple of hours but not much more than that. I can sit and read for hours normally, but it seems not by a pool these days! We tend to go out in the morning, lunch, sit by the pool for a couple of hours, swimming and back to our apartment!

Loved your comment about men rearranging their bollocks. Real howler.

Can they do it one handed inside and outside of their shorts and swim wear?

Or, as some men boast about the real low hangers. Tie them in a bow?

No I can't anymore either, nearer to 50 than 40. I find it boring, and don't like being in direct sun/burning. I tend to spend more time in the pool nowadays and join in with the water aerobics etc.

I can if I am completely in the shade and I can get into a pool every so often. If I have my kindle, regular cocktails and snoozes, I can easily while away an entire afternoon.

Our children are grown, we deserve it.

I can. But I need an umbrella or shade

I’m over 70 and can still lie on a sunbed as long as I have my kindle to read .
I also take a cheap , plain lilo with me and cover it with a towel . It makes it much more comfortable for my arthritic joints 😂.

On a beach in Greece, yes, for a good few hours interespersed with swimming, eating a little, a walk. By a pool, no. Get bored.

I suspect the inability to concentrate is down to social media. I can do it yes but concentration is a struggle. I still like a drink though 😬

That's interesting! Another reason for me to try them...

I live in a country where you can sit by the pool at least 90% of the year. I have leisure membership at a hotel 5 mins walk from my house, pool is temperature controlled, always enough sun beds, they all have umbrellas and tables. Me, iced drinks, Kindle...bliss.
