I wasn't born nor grew up in a family involved in nudist activities.

That's us up North
I was brought up to believe that one was only nude when in the shower or changing clothes.
Being nude in front of others was acceptable only for the short time it was required to do that.
I had never gone around nude for an extended period of time and certainly not in mixed company.
As a youngster my girlfriends and I went skinny dipping in our pool but only when no one else was around including our parents.
But some how the mind set changed along the way.
It was then that my girlfriend and I realized that swimming was much better in the nude but where could we do it as our pool seemed to be always occupied by my brother and his mates at this age.
We did not want to do it alone in a remote area as that was not safe to do so, the world isfull of freaks.
And then one day we found out about a beach near us where one could swim clothes free without hassle.
Swanbourne Beach.
And what a beautiful beach it is, every bodies nude and take no notice of others 'cept to say hi or whatever.
Now Gillian and I go to Swanbourne nude Beach whenever we can and love every
minute spent there.
Love you all and hope to see you there soon. Carol.
