Yeah same here, I've had that many skin cancers burnt off me this last couple of years, I couldn't count them. So I always wear a hat now.
My mothers side are all of Norse stock, so we all have very fair skin, we don't sunburn, we just cook !!!!!

You're sure we're not related? Swedish on Dad's side ... and ghosty pale white folk!

Hmmmmmmm......not sure if there's any Swede in us.
Unless of course there were some captive women that we Norwegians and Frisian Islanders stole from time to time.......hee hee.
My mothers side is from York in England, which circa a thousand years ago was the main Danish settlement in Britain, Mums family records go back to around the 1100 mark. But her family name isn't Danish, it's more Norwegian really, and of course it's known that there were a few Frisian pirates involved (they were all axe swingers there)....a few Normans in those early years to, but they were Norwegian originally before settling in Normandy. So yeah, my family are all very fair, all blondies, much too fair for the Aussie sun, so we have to watch ourselves outdoors, wear hats and sun cream and stuff.
But living here on the New England plateau is good, as most of the year the temperatures are cool.
