Sunscreen advice.

From our favorite Galwegian.



Is she right?  No idea, but I did read the other day a new super sunscreen is coming out which is supposed to virtually guarantee that you can't get skin cancer while wearing it.

I won't be wearing it.

Perhaps that's stupid, but I have a problem with slathering myself with goop and I rely on the oldest method of sun protect, clothing.

How I will note that the producer of this vlog is always fairly heavily dressed, so I'm not throwing rocks at her, but a lot of people I see in the sticks, particularly along rivers, are dressed stupidly in this regard.  In contrast, the last couple of years, some people on fishing boats on the rivers are practically dressed in hazmat suits.

It's as if, we've forgotten how to dress.

Ditch the shorts.  Put on a broad brimmed hat.  And, yes, wear some sunscreen.
