BOOZERS and bar staff got sunstroke inside a pub - after the manager accidentally put in bulbs from a tanning machine.

Emma McLean replaced the blue strip lights behind the bar with high-powered ultraviolet tubes.

Unsuspecting workers and regulars stood underneath the lights for hours and some needed hospital treatment.

Barman Morgan Smith suffered severe burns to his neck at the pub in Buckie, Banffshire.

His sister Emma, 21, said: "He was really badly burnt and had sunstroke.

"He was all dizzy and couldn't see because of the brightness of the lights.

"His neck started peeling and was in a right state.

"Nobody could believe he got sunstroke from standing behind a bar."
