Yes it is. They are just saying that to comply with the forum, nobody here says 'sunscreen'. Its Suncream.

I'd call it suncream as well, even though I'd usually expect to see it branded as sun lotion. "Sunscreen" just reminds me of that Baz Luhrmann song from the 90s.

We got a localized t-storm here yesterday, nothing to write home about as far as storms go, but we did get a good rain, so I'm happy about that.

Oh, never heard of "suncream" before. At first I thought it was a typo.

Tomorrow evenings match. I put "this" instead of "tomorrow" by mistake. Hardly crime of the century.

In this day and age it must be shown online.
