Yesterday (Sunday) I was again out in the field (the rocky shore) studying my limpets. Now yesterday was very hot and sunny - so I dutifully suncreened up and did the whole reapply thing every couple of hours.
So i get home and around 8.30 I strip to have a bath...and what...what is that on my back???? My entire is back is bright red!!! Somehow the sneaky sun had sunburned my through my t-shirt!!!! Ok Ok...i was wearing a white t-shirt...but stilll...I never though the sun was into piercing through your clothes to get to your skin. I even have a bra strip of whiteness!!!! So when I go for a swim next time in my halter neck bikini...i will have this weird tan mark! (not that I care too much...)
Another lesson learnt...

That's very strange! I didn't know that could happen either. I'm fortunate (touchwood!) that I don't burn and just go dark when I'm out in the sun. I've seen how much it hurts for others though...
Ouch. I hope it's not too painful.
It isn't too painful - didn't notice at first. I think my t-shirt was a little too old...
