Holiday heatwave - We need to be vigilant in the sun

HAVING endured depressingly dull summers for too long, what a welcome change it is to experience the kind of heat normally associated with sunnier climes.

With the heatwave set to continue, no doubt sun-worshippers will be flocking to the seaside in droves this weekend.

Without wishing to putting a damper on this scenario, it is also a time when holiday-makers should be extra vigilant.
