Don are you really sure you need to go back...cos after my first day back at work today, Im thinking depression has set in and i really can take your place if the need arises :'(
Im already wondering whos sleeping in my bed lol! Oh by the way if your in room 105 Don make sure the sink taps are well and truly turned off otherwise you will flood the bathroom as we found out... gulp!
Im soooo envious of everyone going in the next few weeks....its just not fair! Tony I meant to add in my report, after your recomendation of the english brekkie in condor we went to try it.....gorgeous! This was when we had overdosed on the chocolate coissants and needed something more substantial to soak up the previous nights liquids!  Don, can you say hello to George and nikos for me and Steve. Also i meant to add if anyone else is at the barras as from this week they are banning P20 suncreme as this has a reaction to there washing powder when they wash the sheets and towels. It looks like theres been a massacre in the bed as all the sheets are splattered with red as we found out to our cost when Steve was using it and someone else in the apartments. just letting you know before anyone buys it cos it isnt cheap! HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE! 8) 8) 8) 8)

Does it stain really badly then. If you are using it and then going out and about swimming/sunbathing does it not wear off after later on in the shower?

Never had a problem! in the old days it would stain clothes Yellow if you dressed within an hour of application, (Don loved that!),
but now it bonds to the skin within 30 mins and should not stain if you follow directions!

I didnt buy it this year for myself because it was turning most of my whites a yellowish colour but steve carried on using it saying that its the new formula now with no stains. It wasnt that bad as previous but  Nikos came over to us and asked what suncreem we are using because in the odd room their sheets had turned a pinking colour and also the loo seat had gone pink in 1 apartment( not ours!). :-[
we brought out the P.20 to show him and he poured it on some sheets neat but then sprayed it with neat water. It went bright red. I said it must be a reaction from their soap powder as they wash the sheets at the back of the hotel in their wash house but george wasnt having any of it. He said it reacts with the water!
This is even when you have been in the shower and you have washed it off, but then one of the other reasons I dont use it is cos I think it still stays on your skin,and the smell of it smells as though your lathering yourself up in petrol for the day!!! Us ladies like to smell a bit sweeter than an oiltank and coconut smell gets me everytime! :)

That is just so strange -
I just tried it by putting on a cotton handkerchief, then left it a few minutes - then put water on it - nothing happened!
We have been using P20 for about the last 15 years now, the old mix was supposed to be put on and left for 1 hour so it would bond with the skin cells, if you then put on anything white (well you can't go naked for breakfast!!)lol - it stained the clothes yellow!
However, the new formulae does not do this at all.
You put it on leave for up to 30 minutes and it bonds with your skin and doesn't stain your clothes at all.
Once on it stays all day, it does not wash off of come off in the sea, it just seems to neutralise and absorb.
I can't understand how this stained red - weird!! Maybe something else is causing the chemical reaction!
Maybe the manufacturers need to know!
Tony - near Heathrow Airport - still not red!!
