Oh why can’t they just put it away!

It’s hard to believe in November, when most of us are rationing the heating to an hour a day and wearing at least two jumpers, but naturism is said to have surged since lockdown. Nearly seven million Britons now claim to be naturists, with hiking, ten-pin bowling and visiting art galleries in the altogether on their list of pastimes. What madness is this? One group of nudists in Kent wanted an evening in the local pub. It was banned after complaints. Good. If you want to be starkers at home, that’s entirely up to you, but I don’t want to bump into a bunch of naked ramblers! Just put your clothes on, please.
