Holiday plans

[yr hmbl correspondent wonders where to get waterproof spray-on sunscreen, as he sits with blistered shoulders after spending Saturday on the beach at Bournemouth with hsenag et multi alii]

Work is starting to drag in the sort of way that suggests a holiday would be good, so I'm reckoning on taking two weeks off starting next Monday.

I'm hoping it's not going to be the sort of holiday that needs a holiday to recover from it; Saturday and Sunday in Nottingham with my old housemates and hopefully Chiara, Monday and Tuesday in Cardiff with papersky and zorinth, Wednesday probably lazily at home, then heading to Cambridge Thursday-ish, and Friday to Friday staying up on the coast near Middlesbrough on a walking holiday with my parents.

Is there still group activity in Cambridge on Thursday nights?

The really effective spray-on sunscreens are generally intended for very small children. Look in their specialty stores, and expect to pay lots. If you read the fine print, you'll see that they expect you to spray it on, and then rub it in, to get the full effect (waterproof, long-lasting, sun protection.) If you just spray, it doesn't work as well. Also, NO sunscreen will work very well if you just put on a little bit. You really have to slather it on to get the proper level of protection.
