I'm pretty much always on WiFi. The only mobile data I tend to use is for navigation and for messaging my wife from the supermarket!

And only £3500 as well! Leonardslee is also a sculpture park, with many of them available to buy, if you have several thousand pounds lying around!

Today's @britnaturism.bsky.social Naked Heart Walk at Leonardslee Lake and Gardens was rather wet, but it didn't dampen spirits. It wasn't cold and skin dries easily! And @helen.berrimansbareall.uk kept an eye on the café...

The Naked Heart Walks are to raise funds for @thebhf.bsky.social.

Here's a piece which I have written to coincide with my daughter being on the Women In Focus podcast, and which the INF have kindly hosted. Her episode is out tomorrow, Sat. 6th Sept. Our society is 'protecting children into the very problems we seek to prevent.' Its time for an honest conversation.

International Naturist Federation @worldnaturism.bsky.social · Sep 5

We’re protecting people from the wrong things.

Fear of natural bodies distracts us from the real crisis: body shame, social media pressure & unrealistic beauty standards.

It’s time to choose wisely.

That looks awesome, and cool pics. I like a maize maze. Need to find one down south! And what a nice way to get into naturist events. Who organised it, do you know?

No, you were right. There are seven. People often forget Antarctica. Admittedly it's not the best one for naturism, but hey - it's there!

It does annoy me when people are lazy and pass off a whole AI response (complete with the Markdown) as their own idea! Do read the comments - the vast majority are in support with some good points raised.

Moderation are usually pretty good - eventually! They can take their sweet time though. Keep appealing! I do, however, think its safest to just keep all nudity out of profile and banner images. The AI that does the auto-labelling can't tell the difference and just labels any nudity as sexual. 🙄

As influencers spread ‘toxic’ claims, what is the truth about sunscreen?

Too much exposure to the sun has traditionally been seen as a danger. Now claims that sunscreen is toxic flood the internet. What does the science say?
