I am one of the silly ones sunbaking on my towel. Mind it has been more than 50 years since I did that and so far (touch wood) have not developed any skin cancers.
The ozone layer was a major concern from the 1980s onwards and so hopefully you have some kind of resistance as a kid. I hope that for myself too. (First Gold Coast Residents did the same and rarely get melanomas so fingers crossed). Also, I read that people of Asian extraction are highly unlikely to get melanomas so if you have that in your blood line then even better.
