I retain sufficient self-awareness to know that revealing any part of my body will induce automatic vomiting for 500 yards around

I hear you brother!

The better half has been saying 'you're sat in your own back garden FFS! Nobody can see you. Why not take your t-shirt off and get some colour on your pasty white skin!" But if I can envisage [i]any[/i] situation, even one involving alien invasion, where I could end up being seen in this half-clothed state, by real human beings, who are possessed of a capacity to point and giggle, then I'll be staying fully clothed thanks very much

😀

Was working in Mallorca a few years back, the company provided food in a hotel in Magaluf... grim, what kind of idiot sits out frying in midday Spanish sun?

The supermarket where I work has a No top, no come in policy. It's quite entertaining sitting on the security podium by the door bouncing people out. Feel like the bloke in that bank Ad "Sorry mate, Policyyyyyyyy"

One who's been out since the night before, and has consumed their own body-weight, twice over, in Stella, as well as 10 - 15 E's

Flashy - I imagine your Ruby Iridium Holbrooks have a hidden James Bond stlye minaturised camera (I'll be really disappointed if they don't), so do feel free to share 😀

Suppose, but you could sit in one of the 1000s of handy, shady, nearby bars and they'll serve you more of those cold refreshing Stellas too...

After all the Stella and E's, I doubt logical and rational reasoning is at its optimum 😉

It's the blokes I see riding bikes with hoodies on, with the hoods up, that get me.
I happily wear shorts for as long as the weather is kind enough to allow, March to October, usually, but it's a tee on top, when out in public. A Prana or Hot Tuna tank at home, but not in public. Up in That London tomorrow, for a gig at Somerset House, so I'll be looking at lots of attractive young women in light summer clothes. Iridium Frogskins essential.

Was riding home t'other day and saw a large 50ish chap pulling a shopping trolley down the road. That's not uncommon for round here, what made the difference was his t-shirt was rolled up over his impressive beer gut so it looked like a sports bra.

That picture ^^ reminds me of being in Granada airport waiting for a flight home and a woman in there wearing a pale top over lobster-red skin. She must have fallen asleep on the beach - panda eyes, bra lines in pasty white, the rest of her was pillar-box red. She must have been in agony.

I of course found it hilariously funny.

sometimes I long for the days when air-travel was glamourous and only for the well to do.

Then I remember that I'm poor and I wouldn't be able to go away anywhere if this was still the case.

Rather awkward when those that are on view are of your colleague, shortly before a meeting. 😯

I did see at least three seperate old Croatian blokes (In Croatia) proudly walking around with their t-shirt rolled up to expose their well upholstered (but not enoromouslly obese) midriffs. They looked proud and I presume it aids the digestion. I now refer to this behaviour as "kiting".

I did see a lady in a scarf in last month's mini heatwave. I wasn't haluicinating, but she may have been.

I take my top off in the sun. Why shouldn't I? Don't want a t-shirt tan. That said my body is fine - it's my face that's offensive.

Currently frying in the Spanish sun!
