    We do too, live about 15 mins from the beach and are moving closer this summer.

    Nothing better in my opinion.

      I'm not a beach person. I much prefer the pool and waiter service.

      The only beaches we "do" are the ones in the South of France where it's €20 per day for a sunbed and umbrella, free mineral water, the sand is raked, they have little Thai people who give you massages and then they reserve you a table for lunch on the terrasse. Two weeks and counting.....
      ...my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...

        Juan les pins?

        I lived with a French girl in Frejus for a summer. I remember all of the fenced off areas, raked beaches. Preferred diving off the cliffs at St Aygulf with all the local idiots, but I was very young and having fun.

        Love that area, hope you have fun.

          And, what's a usual amount of time to sit under the sun?

          Basically, i'm at work and bored now...
          just had a week in Turkey, the whole week consisted of eating drinking sleeping followed by more eating drinking sleeping followed by more eati!!!!!! you get the idea.

          I did do some excercise, i would occasionally get off the sunbed and swim across the pool to the bar then walk back with my beer
