Rumor has it some of the jocks might actually lose their blue tint (Zammo2 never) and have white skin for the 1st time.

hehehe good one stevie, and I have to agree.....Aberdeen is really like that!!

As Zammo says, we invented the sun for you poorer nations, doesnt mean we have to use it too

Macca: Ive lived in Saudi Arabia for over 4 years now and Im very slowly losing my blueness, Arabs now think Im English, there is a down side to everything in this world
