This may be controversial, but how is a controlled tan under a sunbed any worse than exposing yourself directly to the sun? I thought modern sunbeds filtered out the most harmful UV anyway. Like anything, it's all about doing things in moderation, right?


Personally, I'd rather not have chemicals rubbed into my body and can spot a fake tan a mile off. I can't help thinking about that orange girl off the last series of The Apprentice! lol

I dunno what's worse - real sun or sun bed so can't answer that. The spray tan at Natura sun and St Tropez, if applied PROPERLY, are not orange and there is no way you would tell it's fake. Been using St Tropez for years on my boat race and I don't look like I have been tangoed!

That's alright then Charlie, if there's a firearm involved it'll give you a chance to reclaim some machismo.

Reminds me of a conversation had some time ago with some friends as to whether the back, the crack, or the sack would be the most painful... Actually, I may have already posted this question on here in an old thread. Anyway, for the record, I reckon crack would hurt most.


Aaaaanyway, Do what you've gotta do Charlie, but if I were you, I'd just go as you are... Besides, if you are pale, and don't tan very well, then I'd imagine if would be pretty obvious that you had a fake tan on, and you don't want it backfiring.

Geeza Bird!!! ;-)

I must admit that I saw Graham Norton walking along the strand between South Bank and London Bridge on tuesday morning, and he was the colour of a satsuma. I wonder if he is so famous now that people are afraid to be honest with him? How sad. I really have to say though, Mel does a super fake tan and it lasts for a week...

Heya...


Im new to this site, but just thought i'd drop my "two cents".. lol.. My mate at gym uses something called xen-tan. its not supposed to make you go orange.. (but i wouldn't notice if he were!) he gets it from ebay or leanmachines.co.uk. think they're about the same price... hope this helps! :-)

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
