Public Service Announcement #23

If you have delicate skin like our kabuki zero...



...you may benefit from a parasol.

Or you could grab your umbrella...

A recent study shows that umbrellas are almost as effective as sunscreen where UV protection is concerned.

“Umbrellas aren’t perfect, so you should use them to complement the sunscreen you’re already wearing,” say the study's authors.

This has been an Infomaniac Public Service Announcement.

    1. I hope they are secured well... Otherwise in a gust of wind there'd be srteets full of hundreds of Mary Poppins impersonators... And I bet none could hold a candle to Dame Julie...

  7. Joan Collins stepped out of the Japanese Noh theatre straight onto the film set of Benidorm with an umbrella carrier in tow. I wonder if she had someone there to peel her a grape too. Lazy cow!

    3. I consider an actor's métier to be déclassé but I would have given my back teeth to have a part in Benidorm.
