The Institute for Studies found that people would rather admit to an affair with a close relative than confess a couple of wet days during their annual break.

“And by next summer security scanners at UK airports will be fitted with high-intensity sunbed tubes to guarantee returning Britons the ideal ‘Tom Baker after a port and cheese bender’ skin tone.”
