as a man I have the primal urge to pick a fight with the giant ball of fire in the sky, I lost this time but one day.

Unfortunately I've already committed to it happening one DAY.

If you spend 8 hours in the sun, the sunscreen doesn't seem like it helps entirely.

In the US it's cheap but unregulated and full of shit that's terrible for you. Or you can pay an arm and a leg for stuff that's better but still not up to the standards of most other countries. I learned this by getting a chemical burn in my eye from sunscreen... meant for my face.
Oh, that's bad. Made me think of this sunscreen and in Robocop 2.

Every English tourist in Australia.
Australia is a different beast though. I went out for like 10 minutes without a hat or sunscreen on a particularly hot december noon and my nose damn near fell off the day after
Not because I thought I'm too tough to get sunburnt but if you live your entire life in Europe you just can't imagine the sunshine being this potent. Never happened again after that incident

Reapply q2 hours and every time you use a towel. I don't think most sunscreen is advertising all day Protection.

I mean of course, I'm saying even adding more periodically. Just feels like always some gets through

My excuse is that the weather was predicted as "cloudy" when we left in the morning. When we were on the trip, though, the sun was burning down to extinct humanity instead.

"ball of fire"
Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.
Hypothetically speaking, will you get sunburnt if you sit near a fire all day?

mate it's £5-10 for a 200ml bottle I'd hardly call that cheap

The heat could dry out your skin, which, if I'm not mistaken, is essentially what a burn is. However, as the other person noted, a sunburn is damage from radiation, not heat. So I think you could stretch the common definition of a burn to call heat induced dry skin a burn but calling it a sunburn would not be accurate.

WTF are those prices. I'd start looking into importing from abroad ...

@bees Actually the UV creams have shown to be themselves carcinogenic, so it's not about to have cancer or not, but how to get it. All things in moderation, including sun, your body does need vitamin d3 which it produces in the presence of UV.
Can you actually avoid vitamin d production if you stay long enough in the sun that you need sunscreen to avoid sunburns?

There's no fire in the sun. Fire is some material oxidizing, and that's not what's happening (or at least not in relevant amounts). What creates the radiation is nuclear fusion.

@rumschlumpel I live close to Seattle. If we're lucky here there might be three days in the year where you can get sunburn. -
...and Florida, and Jamaica, and Mexico, and (I presume) Spain. There is no corner of the earth in which the English will not challenge the mighty Helios until they are as red as the cross of St. George.
*Me in Vitoria, Spain: "You guys get sun?"
Large parts of the north of Spain are basically UK in terms of weather.
