Yeah I get that. Being Italian (and olive-skinned) I have a bit of a natural tan all year round. Otherwise I'm not big on tans. No offence, but I find the whole obsession with it these days, especially with women, rather vulgar.

Did you know at one time it was frowned upon by ladies to have a tan, as it was considered as common, and so the female gentry prided themselves on being as pasty-faced as possible! ;)

Ian I'm the complete opposite I love it when it's hot as long as it's not humid as I hate that...

I know it was indeed frowned upon to have a tan and better to be pasty-faced... It's not that I love having a tan it's just that I love heat on my body... roll on the spring/summer...

Absolutely Bev, humidity is so uncomfortable, years ago I wouldn't buy a car unless it had air conditioning, thankfully comes pretty much as standard these days.

Lol... Sorry to hear that, Ian. No medical issues here, but I just don't cope well in severe heat, and besides, that sort of weather isn't healthy or really good for you.

No, I'd far rather be up in the Austrian Tyrol, during December, like Del and I were last year, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary, on a bright, fresh sunny day, getting a 'suntan' at 3000m and -15°C! ;)

Now *that* is healthy weather!! :exactly:

Same here. I have little tolerance at all for humidity - it just saps all my energy, and I absolutely DETEST continually feeling all hot and sweaty, and needing to take about four showers a day, just to feel clean! :spew:

I rode a motorcycle around Austria years ago, I think it was the most beautiful place I've ever been to, I'd love to see it again one day.

You're right, Ian. It's an absolutely beautiful country. Check out the pics in the Abstract Gallery section we took while we were there last year: http://theartofsound.net/forum/showt...ary-in-Austria

:cool:

I remember seeing them when you posted them Marco and thinking back to the bike tour. I think I've got some photos somewhere, I'll try and fish them out.
