The search for Winter Sunshine in Madeira.

We Brits have a dress code for sunny weather which is recognisable anywhere. 

Shorts must be short - straight from the playing fields of our school days.

Sandals can only be worn with socks - any suntan must finish in a straight line at sock level.

Shirts must be firmly tucked into the shorts - no tails flapping in the breeze.

British men are not good at carrying "man-bags" - a simple plastic shopping bag will do us nicely.
