Janis....I'll take you down to the north end beach in May.....

[Janis]

Now there's a challenge.... can I think about it, Sandy?  I'm not backing down, just hesitating a little

Nobody's forcing you Janis....lol

[Janis]

I know, Sandy - would love to meet up in any case! We arrive on the 17th May and I believe you leave on the 19th? We usually have at least our first and our last meal at Brouklis

I'm sure I'll be at Brouklis for my last night on the 18th....but we'll bump into each other anyway at some point.

Well said Sandy luvver. Like Paul said it removes the feelings about what others see, it is about you being free. It no longer matters. If it does, you shouldn't be there (but maybe should see your therapist.)

Many in Arillas neither know nor care about us lot at the invisible far end as long as we aren't the type who stalked our Mary.

I have been on naturist beaches all over the place, and have seen just about every shape of naked male and female body there is to see. To be honest I don't really understand why we worry about nudity. When I am cold I am clothed. When I am warm I am naked. But I can't live like that because we have arrived at Queen Victoria's attitudes.

I must shut up now, but believe me Janis, I have sunbathed naked in many places. Arillas is only different because I don't have to struggle and risk my life down a cliff path. It is really healthy to be honest about it all.

Now here's a little story, Phil - many many years ago when married to my first husband we were in France and visited La Dune du Pilat which allegedly is the highest sand dune in Europe (or was, at that time)
We climbed and climbed right to the top and the view was fantastic.  The warm sun was on my back and it was so lovely and peaceful, no one else around, my ex took the girls down to the beach on the other side and I decided to take my bikini top off and sunbathe topless (I could wear a bikini in those days!)
All of a sudden a whole horde of people appeared and walked riight past me.... it turns out there was an "easy" way up and I was only feet away from the natural pathway.
Ooops!

Janis luvver you have to decide. I'm not donkey kong, Jen isn't Pamela Anderson. It isn't the point. You aren't showing it off. You are simply baring your soul.

I know I sound like a recruitment officer but I'm not. I justknow how we two have lived the last 40 years. It is your choice. But don't imagine anyone is looking at you. Because they have seen it all before. It becomes irrelevant. Painted nails no longer matter. Freedom to be who you are. That is naturism.

 Freedom to be who you are. That is naturism
how true phil!
i was very aprehensive the first time on the north beach, but soon realised, no one cared what i looked like!! unlike "normal" beaches where everyone seems to frown on you if you havent got the perfect body in the right swimsuit (which i havent)
so on the north beach you can be perfectly relaxed in your own skin and not worry about what others think, because they're not thinking about you at all, they are doing their own thing................................relaxing in their own skin

[Sandy x]

I couldn't agree more ger. Well said.

[Paul D]

   It` s about being comfortable with yourself, as others have said.
   Having made the jump, I can honestly say, what is all the fuss about?

    No pretentions- just good company of like minded people.

I once thought I'd never dare to bare all either, Janis, but that was before I tried it in Arillas. 

Ger put it so eloquently, everyone else is doing their own thing.

After my first time 3 years ago, I thought just what Paul  has said, what was the fuss all about?

[riggers]

  what is all this talk of nudity    lol, i haven't the bottle to do it.

[Sandy x]

Whenever I've seen you riggers you always have plenty of bottle......

[riggers]

Very good and quick answer Sandy dearest.
