I think it is a smashing idea, trouble is if I bent over to weed I wouldn't be able to see, my vision would be blocked!!

Maybe we should have a competition for the biggest melons or cukes on the same day to entertain the crowds.

gunnerbee are you thinking of malmsbury abbey gardens? the first time we went there they had some cloths on(not a lot) the gardens are fantastic and it was  a really enjoyable day so I was looking forward to a repeat until we reached a small bridge that overlooks the river part and saw a stark naked man posing against a tree!!! well it seemed it was naked day OH says I,m not going in there I won,t know where to look. so that was the end of our day out and he refuses to go back just in case

Oh this sounds like Wreck Beach in Vancouver...bare bums abound as do boobs etc  all in a friendly jovial atmosphere with jazz bands and bare bum volley ball,

Maybe  on the special day they will do Poetry among the peas or Bard in the compost,music while you mulch.

PS If you are visiting Vancouver, Wreck Beach is for real..look it up !!

Dont worry, noone will bother about what you look like. If you can do it and want to do it, just go for it!

its all about the freedom of not wearing clothes, not showing off your body.

I'd do it myself (and i am no fashion model) only i am too over looked in my garden.

Definitely Malmesbury Abbey Gardens.  Ian and Barbara Pollard are the naked owners/gardeners.  I visited in 2006 and I didn't see anyone completely naked but noticed that Ian was dressed in a short smock.  When he bent down it was obvious that he wasn't wearing underpants!   :o

The gardens are beautiful, especially when the bulbs are out and well worth a visit.

It would save having to buy a dibber?

let's leave your privets out of it Jeannine.

i'm running out of Naturist jokes, as I posted some other ones on another thread.
Here's on from a seaside postcard

Bloke Naturist - "I'm pleased to meet you!"
Girl Naturist - "Blimey, I can see you are!!!"

A naked man fears no pickpockets.

A nudist never has to hold out his hand to see if it is raining.

A flying saucer results when a nudist spills his coffee.

A harp is a nude piano.

Nudist Resort sign - Sorry, Clothed for Winter.

Always swim nude.  Sharks hate to peel their food.

Nudists are people who wear one-button suits.

Never cook bacon when you're naked.

;D  ;D  ;D
