To go with lemon juice story. And I am nicking this because I wasn't there but I know all involved.
Three chums were many years ago enjoying summer sunshine at one of their houses. These chums all blue eyed and two of them blonde, in fact one strawberry blonde with the palest of skins, well not albino pale.

The blondest one concerned with his easily burnt skin asked the mother if she had anything to protect them. "Oh yes, I have olive oil."

For whatever reason, perhaps bowing to the superior years of experience they all agreed to a nice coating of olive oil. How they enjoyed the sun with the certain knowledge of UV protection. Well, the blondest one was nearly hospitalised and the others were cooked lobsters.

I say hats off to you Wendy, you always thought the blondest one was a bit up himself.
