Thanks for the good wishes Naked Archer.
Regretfully, I did not go. My plan was based on everything falling into place which it did until the very last minute when my non naturist wife decided to travel to Aberdeen on Monday instead of Sunday meaning that I did not have time free to attend.
Absolutely disappointed but it makes me more determined to go along at some point.

Goodness! It’s been a while since I was on here! Busy busy!
I had a great time down at Clover Spa. The Spa itself is wonderful, but what really made it for me, was being able to wander around the garden to cool and dry off! So liberating! 🙂 I also fell in love with the hot stone chairs - Oh my! My massage was fantastic too! Ask for Petronella, if you’re going for one 🙂 The hotel itself is very comfortable and clean, but a little too hot for my liking, which meant I didn’t sleep very well - hey ho! It’s also a very easy, quick and cheap train ride to the centre of Birmingham, so I was able to nip into town for some gorgeous vegan food too.
Just being able to wander around naked was very new for me. Having never been in that situation before, I wondered how I would feel being naked around clothed people. I needn’t have worried, I was never made to feel anything other than comfortable and welcome. A great experience!
Now, on to this weekend - I hope to get to The Arlington on Sunday - Anyone else going?

I was considering a trip to the Arlington, but unfortunately car still poorly, and the fact that the traffic might be very busy in Glasgow this weekend due to a concert on glasgow green has put me off driving through.
Out of the blue and I mean completely out of the blue, my non-naturist wife said to me and I quote "there is a nude swim in Haddington, why don't you go." It appears that the event was mentioned on the Kaye Adams radio show earlier this week.
I plan to go asap but there is an irony here. I am in Aberdeen for the next 3/4 weeks and then on holiday for 2 weeks so the soonest I can attend the Haddington swim is 2 September. Hopefully,I will make that date and meet some of you.
Thereafter, I want to attend the Arlington swim and Jane, I would like to go along on the same evening as you if that is ok. Please feel free to say no if you are uncomfortable with that.
When I am in Aberdeen, I plan to attend the Sunnybroom swim. I'll let you know how I get on.
Jane - good to hear you enjoyed Clover Spa.

That’s great news! What a surprise that must have been for you! What a shame that you’ll have to wait so long to go though.
Of course we can go along on the same day. I’ve no problem with that. I may even join you for the Haddington Swim in September 😊 I’m so glad you can finally plan for things. Enjoy Sunnybroom!

Thanks Jane. I’ll keep in touch

Hi all. We are just back yesterday from a holiday with family just outside London, sadly non-naturist especially with the amazing weather we had.
Would love to do Arlington tonight but after a 500 mile drive home yesterday and back to work :- on Monday, another 160 miles driving round trip isn't appealing.
If the weather is good next weekend, a visit to Kinshaldy beach might be on the cards.
Rob
Ouch. I've been dreading the 160 miles I'm driving tomorrow. At least that has put it in perspective
Had a smashing day on the beach at Kinshaldy with my other half, Janeypoppet, DnD and Naked Archer. Weather was beautiful, very few other nuddies around, thought it would have been busier.
Water was lovely for a couple of good skinny dips and we had lots of chat and laughs for a few hours. Thanks for a great day everyone, hope we can do it again soon.

Loved it too Rob! Totally exhausted now 😎 Thanks everyone for making it a very enjoyable day.
Looking forward to Glasgow Continental tomorrow too 😎

Yes, it was a really good afternoon! Glad I made the effort to make the trip after finishing work early today. 🙂
All I can do is echo what's already been said, a great day with great folk and great weather.
Best check oneself for ticks though, I've just removed one from my unmentionables! 😮
Checked and all clear here thankfully.
Rob
Nothing to see here!!! 😅
