As you have probably guessed, I got sunburnt while go karting with one of my older brothers and some friends about 2 weeks ago. Well after considerable pain initially, utilising gallons of aloe vera and moisturiser, I am very happy they have recovered to a semi normal state.

In the last two weeks, I have gone from white to a bright red, to tiny blisters and then pealing. The pealing has just about finished now. It now doesn’t hurt to walk back to my car of in the afternoon sun, yippee! The colour in my legs now is my normal ‘white tan’, on top of my ‘pink’ skin. Some people just weren’t meant to have a tan – I’m one of them.

Lets hope it doesn’t happen again any time soon.
