Anyone planning to take part in any of those?

I don’t really know; I see that there are none in Wales (for shame!) but I work for a UK wide organisation and I’d always have meeting a colleague at the back of my mind!

That’s me on the far left of the pic, hiding my camera behind my back. I’ve done Beacon Tarn three times and last year St Anne’s for the first time. I’ve posted videos on YouTube. They’re mostly shot from a distance and showing the back of people. I’ve aimed to show that the events existed rather then identify anyone. 2016 was a bit of an exception in that regard as he had a TV crew with us shooting a documentary for Channel 4 so I was less restrained with my video.

ever ask the ladies who take part why SOO few ladies do these events?

I haven’t. There’s a higher proportion of ladies at Beacon Tarn. Maybe because it is well out of the way or perhaps due to having a female organiser. Last year’s was the first time it wasn’t raining and some of the group stripped on the way there. I walked back naked. My rucksack has ventilated shoulder straps with a course mesh over them and it chafed at my shoulders. This year I might wear a t-shirt to stop that, unless wearing one looks perverse

Venue looks amazing. Is it always a skinnydipping location or just on special days?

[Darren]

I believe it does get used at other times. The GBSD does have the advantage of publicity, which shows we’re not there to cause distress to anyone.

If I can find one close by I will definitely go . I cant drive anymore so rely on others to get me around so cant go to far .
