Ill got first.

I felt a bit nauseous coming back from work one day last week so I went straight to bed without eating.

The next morning I was quite hungry and once I had driven to work I went to a Tesco Superstore with a hankering for a banana.

Cue stupidity. I went to the adjoining Costa to use the bathroom and quickly scanned for bananas, which they didn’t have so I bought an overpriced toastie instead.

A few days later I’m sat mind wandering and I think I was in Tesco with thousands of bananas but I just checked Costa. Sigh

I didn't put on sunscreen when I was outdoors for an extended period because it was cloudy. I knew it was a dumb move. I did it anyway. And I definitely paid for it with the worst sunburn I've had in literal years. Will not be making that stupid move again for quite a while!

Aww I’m sorry i can relate. I’ve been burned more than enough times that I just don’t go in the sun too much. Family want to sit by the pool, crack on then, I’ll go for a walk hopping from shade to shade.

I too was dumb but more I didn’t like the feeling of sun cream on my skin. I don’t like burning either so avoiding the sun where possible is the way.

That said I do like to run in it occasionally, I stop running but then it gets warm and I get the urge.
