This is my first addition to the forum, hoping to be a full and active member in the future

My first time:-

Back in September 2007 my wife and I has a fantastic week on the Ile de Re in France. The weather was perfect all of the week and on the last day of our holiday we cycled to the NW corner of the island and ended up on the Plage du Lizay. The beach was pretty much deserted but we had obviously stumbled on the naturist section. I needed no encouragement to go naked and had a memorable day of nude sunbathing and swimming, unfortunately I could not persuade my wife to join me (a common story it appears!).

The planets have not aligned since then and I/we have never seemed to be in the right place at the right time.

However we have just returned from Playa Blanca on Lanzarote and spent a couple of days on Playa La Cruz (I think) at Papagayo which gave me the opportunity to sample again sunbathing and swimming as nature intended. I am truly converted, have come back to the UK, joined NC and am now planning where to go to feel the sunshine again in 2018.

Still got to convince the wife though!!!
