There are many ways to enjoy yourself near the coast; I grew up in a coastal resort. Sunning yourself isn't a good one.
Hear hear! Not that I can exactly claim to have grown up on the Isle of Wight - we only moved here when I was 14, so my formative years happened in the perpetual sponge that is Herefordshire-nearly-Wales. But even when we came down here On Holiday we found that the best thing to do with the beach was to dig canals in it.
I do tan very fast - annoyingly fast, in fact, because I end up with tacky-looking strap marks in a couple of hours. For some reason I always wanted to look like something by Burne-Jones.
People frequently seem to take me for older than 21, but I think this is more due to my white hair and general air of maturity/world-weariness (delete as appropriate) than to my skin.
