It's Year End ...

Welcome to my final Nudes Letter of 2009 ...

• Here are items about the naked body that appeared in my daily tabloid paper, The Sun ...
1. A Sun SPOT paragraph tells of "a £30 calendar advertising portaloos and featuring naked models beside waterfalls is being reprinted after selling 75,000 copies in Ratingen, western Germany." The company must be flushed with success ! ( 03/12 ).
2. A paragraph headed RAW COCAINE tells of a "naked driver Gerhard Lemmer, 22, [who] told cops nicking him [that] he forgot to dress after taking cocaine in Aachen, Germany." Just the bare facts then ! ( 07/12 ).
3. Under heading of We'll row sea nude, let's wish good luck to the "two women rowers [who] are hoping to be the first to cross the Atlantic NAKED. Mel King, 37, and Annie Januszewski, 40, will set off starkers tomorrow from the Canary Islands. The pair from Bristol say rowing 3,000 miles to Antigua in the buff will help them avoid chafing and beat the women's record of 75 days." Hope they take plenty of sun cream ! ( 10/12 ).
4. Another episode of our daily cartoon couple George & Lynne, this time they are in the kitchen for Xmas ...
   
   
   
   
   

   LYNNE ( Picture 1 ): "We'll have our own Christmas pudding this year, George."
   GEORGE ( Picture 1 ): "Mm! It smells delicious!"
   
   GEORGE ( Picture 2 ): "Let's both stir and make a wish."
   
   LYNNE ( Picture 3 ): "Mine's that I can eat this and not put on a single ounce!"
   
   

   
   A weight watcher our Lynne ? Did your girl-friend/wife cook in the nude this Christmas ? Nah we all dream ! ( 22/12 ).
5. Despite lots of net coverage, only a paragraph titled HELMET, GENTS? which tells of "two naked men on bicycles were told to wear helmets and go home by cops in Whangamata, New Zealand." Another Operation: Cover-Up by the Police ? ( 24/12 ).

Try and enjoy any sun wherever you maybe especially if lucky with the naked look !

Finally have a great Nude Year !

Naked Nudes ?

Welcome to my Nudes Letter, thanks again for your continued interest in this site ...

• An edition with the usual catch-up items about the naked body that have appeared in my daily tabloid paper, The Sun ...
1. 
   A column item headed Nudist at court for 'baring all in garden' under a photo of "Donald Sprigg, 62, who admits regularly stripping off to tend his garden, is facing three charges of outraging public indecency." Nice to have "horrified neighbours [who] complained about him digging his garden while NAKED... [and causing] 'harassment, alarm or distress' to [them] close to his home in Cirencester, Gloucs." Mr "Sprigg pleaded not guilty to all three charges and was bailed to stand trial on June 20." What a time-waster, more important crime out there than someone who just strips in his garden ! ( 09/05 ).

2. Another column item with heading of TV Nicky ran nude after thief tells of "tv and radio presenter Nicky Campbell told how he chased a thief from his garden yesterday - while totally NAKED. Nicky 50, leapt from bed after being woken at about 5.25am by his dog Maxwell's barking." After spotting "the prowler tring to nick his bike .. he gave chase with 'everything flying in the wind' - "... If I'd jumped on him stark naked he'd have needed counselling for years.". The thief fled empty-handed", luckily not catching anything "in the wind" ( 14/05 ).
3. A small bottom page item titled HOTEL FOR NUDES claims "hotel boss Tim Higgs runs a place where guests love to hang out - it's for nudists only." Shock ! Horror ! It seems "dedicated naturist, 55, has turned a surburban detached family home into a seven-room retreat for people who like to shed their clothes on holiday." That's terrible, really terrible but "Tim, who already owns a hotel [and] was granted permission to open up in Erdington, Birmingham, by the city council, charges from £120 a night." Tim ends "Naturists are crying out for a place like this." 'Location, Location' comes to mind but good luck ! ( 16/05 ).
4. A Sun SPOT paragraph tells of "Streaker Lu Wi, 42, [who] begged passers-by to help cover him up after a holy man said running naked would cure his nightmares in Changchun, China." If it works for him, will it work for you ? ( 31/05 ).
5. 
   An item titled 1 in 5 UK girls strip off on hol claiming "one in five British women goes topless abroad to get an all-over tan, a [Superdrug] poll reveals" The most interesting facts is "women in the 35-44 age group are most likely to bare their boobs." No care eh, wonder if any of the 4 in 5 are naturists who get a real 'all-over tan' ? ( 06/06 ).
6. Seen the ITN video below, here's the photo item titled BACKSIDE THE SEASIDE "as seaside bathers in wet and windy Wales yesterday flock to set a world SKINNY-DIPPING record.
   
   
   
   Four hundred stripped off and plunged shreiking into the freezing waves. They had to remain waist-deep for ten teeth-chattering minutes to break the previous Guinness Book record of 250." A couple of quotes of "exhilarating" & "first time in Wales - and the last" but no mention of the benefiting charity ( 20/06 ).
7. A paragraph headed BUFF JUSTICE tells of "a naked man strolled down the middle of a main road yesterday morning before being collared by cops in Leicester." Without a shirt ? ( 21/06 ).

Till the next one, enjoy the Summer sun !

October shorts ...

Welcome to my Nudes Letter, slightly shorter as still not up to speed/date ...

• Some short items about the naked body that have appeared in my daily tabloid paper, The Sun ...
BRIEF NUDES
1. One of my regional clubs was featured in the press with coverage in The Times & Independent, here a four paragraph item titled Flats fury of nudists tell of "nudist club members are fuming at plans of five-storey blocks of flats overlooking their grounds. .. members of The White House Club in Whyteleafe, Surrey, are angry that the local council has approved a 167-flat tower block 300 yards away." A member is end quoted "I'm not ashamed of my body, but I don't want any Tom, Dick or Harry staring at me." Well said ! ( 11/09 ).
2. Despite lots of net coverage for the obvious comic reasons only one paragraph titled NAKED STUNNER claims "cops shot Zak King, 18, with a taser gun as he jogged NUDE in Palm Bay, Florida, US." Taser to stun ..ouch ! ( 15/10 ).
3. Following loads of net coverage just a paragraph again titled NO-CLOTHES SHOW reports that "tv chiefs want people to strip for a month at a nudist camp for a reality show in Florida, US." Hoping it's more successful than The Naked Jungle ! ( 20/10 ).
4. Another paragraph titled VOTERS SWING tells of "rebel politicians in Spain's Catalan region want volunteers for an election TV ad - featuring dozens of NAKED voters." Wonder what party ? The Naked Front ? ( 23/10 ).

Till the next one !
Steve

PS. The old format continues to do well, now up to March ( stories & news first read here ). Thanks for your interest.

A nude start to 2010 ...

Welcome to my first Nudes Letter of 2010 ...

• Here are items about the naked body that appeared in my daily tabloid paper, The Sun ...

1. The paper's travel section opens its main page with Here is the nudes.. with the rear of a nudist taking centre stage in the travel photo montage. So I was expecting somewhere in the WHERE YOU'LL BE GOING IN 2010 a paragraph or two about naturist holidays. All you find in the bottom section WHAT'S IN AND WHAT'S OUT is a paragraph starting; "Getting naked: Follow in the (bare) footsteps of Paris Hilton. Check out the top ten nude beaches at .. ( site address )." That's it ! An in depth look for 2010 ? ( 03/01 ).
2. As quiet a chance to look back at a couple of items missed this time last year ...
   
   
   
   1. Here's a dilemma for you, where do you look if you end up on a topless or nudist beach but you're not participating ? Under photo heading of HE'S RICHARD LEER, this happened to "Hollywood legend Richard Gere [ a fav of my late mum ] .. the silver-haired star , 59, checked the beauties on St Barts [in the Caribbean] while wife [ & former Bond girl ] Carey Lowell, 47, and son Homer, went swimmimg." Hey life could be worse eh Richard ? ( 03/01/09 ).
   
   2. The paper's seems to have stopped their daily cartoons under Sun Fun this one sees a most revealing chef with the waiter saying "Better not let anyone else order the chef's surprise - he's been drinking."
      The lady customer's not impressed, perhaps write a book like those tv chefs ( 20/01/09 ).
   
   
   

Try and enjoy any sun wherever you maybe especially if lucky with the naked look - a distant memory for moi ! Hope your Nude Year has started well and thanks for the extra visitors - it really amazes me !

Steve

August and more ..

Welcome to my Nudes Letter, sorry for any delay ...

Q. Seen anything in the papers & mags ?

• Here are some missed late June, July & this month items about the naked body that appeared in my daily tabloid paper, The Sun, a sort of catch-up ...
1. 
   
   
   
   A photo item titled FLASH GORDON shows "tv chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife taking a stroll in [St. Tropez,] France - and are served up meat and two veg. The holidaying F-Word star, 43, and Tana, 36, went for a light dressing - their swimwear - unlike the unappetising nudist .. yesterday." A bit unfair but I'm sure that Gordon had a wry smile thinking up ways to cook it or commenting "F**k me ! That guy hasn't been to Scotland !" ( 30/06 ).
2. Troubles for "members of Britain's oldest nudist club were exposed - by road widening works. The Five Acres Country Club has been hidden behind a line of trees and bushes since it opened in the 1920s." The item titled NUDES LOSE THEIR BUSH goes on to reveal the club's location as "the area was stripped by bulldozers as part of an expansion on the M25 at junction 21a." (You've got the last part ?) Meanwhile "it left passers-by and road workers able to ogle nudists at the club neat St Albans, Herts ( Location confirmed ). Club owner Pat Badham is quoted "People who come here enjoy being naked and enjoy the naturist way of life." It ends that "the Highways Agency has agreed to install a 'modesty' fence and line of trees to hide the club." Also the "workers have been told not to look at the nudists", yeah that one may be difficult to obey ( 03/07 ).
3. A six paragraph item titled Nude on the Tube claims "a woman stripped naked at a rush-hour Tube station yesterday - then lept on a train. The attractive blonde, in her 20s, had been wearing just a bra and briefs under a cream raincoat. She threw them off at Elephant & Castle, in South East London, then ran down the platform shoving aside commuters. [Sadly] station staff escorted her off the packed train" Their source is very accurate with the event and smiley commuters were "amused or concerned". The stripper "was held under the Mental Health Act". A warning to all future sporting streakers where you may end up ! ( 10/07 )
4. 
   
   
   
   On the paper's tv biz page a photo item showing a former soap star in two naked poses titled IT'S RICKITT PICS WITH NO KNICKS. Former Coronation Street actor Adam Rickitt who played Nick Tilsley "stripped off to front testicular cancer awareness campaign Checkum." Understand the poster pose not sure about the laying down one ? ( 15/07 ).
5. 
   
   
   
   After winning a search for a new evening presenter for a topical BBC show and a big £100,000 a-year salary you don't want old pics from your past turning up do you ? On the paper's tv biz page a large full length b&w photo of Alex Jones appears near to a heading of The nude One Show presenter. Alex did it of course for a charity shoot in 2005 for Autism Wales and raised thousands and she explains her one-off strip "I'm not the sort who gets naked for photos. But it was for a good cause, so I'm glad I did it." So no future visits to a nudist beach planned ? ( 29/07 ).
6. A Sun SPOT paragraph claims "Baring pale, untanned skin on the beach is the top holiday hate fro 36 per cent of British men and 29 per cent of women, a poll has found". These beach goers are never satisfied are they ! ( 29/07 ).
7. Another Sun SPOT paragraph tells of "cops [who] held a man for assault after he started a NAKED fist fight with two hookers in Kempten, Germany - claiming they had stolen 50 euros from him". Look on the bright side they didn't steal your heart, aah ! ( 02/08 ).
8. A small item titled ART NUDEVEAU tells of "artist Kira Ayn Varszegis [who] is putting her 38DD boobs to good use - as paint brushes. Kira, 34,[ from Connecticut, US ] smothers them in anything from oils to melted chocolate, then sets to work on the canvas." I was taking her serious up to the oils but "the resulting abstract pictures can sell for more than £600." She wants this fine art "to provoke emotion .. and raises more than a few smiles." I'm sure that her buyers think likewise ( 03/08 ).
9. 
   
   
   
   A photo item titled FISH 'N STRIPS FOR STAG LADS shows "cheeky lads on a stag party fishing trip [who] get their tackle out - and are caught by an RAF chopper. The ten youngsters, from Bristol [ no ladies ? ], hired a boat and stripped far out at sea. But the prank off Swansea was snapped by the passing rescue copter's crew." If that was not bad enough the coastguard spokesman said "They had a few little tiddlers." Next time lads stick to a nudist beach and get by unnoticed ( 03/08 ).
10. 
    
    
    
    When looking for news links I can't believe the numbers of links to British model/actress(?) Kelly Brook especially after her recent big figure strip for Playboy. Now she's got her kit off for a sports company to advertise their running shoes. Of course there's has to be a road-side billboard and the paper picks up for their website with heading of Celebrity NUDES like Eva Mendes and Sophie Dahl who advertise products with their naked body. Fine chance seeing any on a naturist beach or at a nudist club ! ( 05/08 ).

Continue to enjoy the cooler sun in the UK ( still mainly nude indoors and ... ), hey hope you are naked wherever you may be !

Thanks for visiting !
Steve
