   Here are a few of my interests, make of them what you will.
- Naturism

What is naturism?

Have you ever stopped to think why it is silly to wear clothes when you go swimming? Naturists belive that there is no reason to be ashamed of their bodies, and that clothes should be worn when appropriate for comfort or protection, but that it is perfectly alright not to wear clothes in an appropriate setting. (That's my definition, others will differ). Mere nudity need not and should not be associated with sex.

I think the British Naturism site explains that better than I can, so if you want to know what they say, just click here. Alternatively visit Richard Burnham's website for another viewpoint on why it is silly to wear clothes when swimming.

Clubs around Oxford

There are two clubs around the Oxford area. Oxnat is the larger of these clubs, with regular swimming sessions in Didcot, and a club site near Oxford. The other club is Woodlands (formerly known as EDUN) with swims in Oxford. Actually Woodlands events are clothing optional rather than naturist, but the difference is not generally noticeable.
- Oxford Naturist Club

Oxnat is one of two naturist clubs in the Oxford area and organises a wide variety of indoor and outdoor activities.

Most weekends there is a swimming session at Didcot Wave and there are sauna sessions at various locations around 4 times a month. Events are for members, prospective members and guests only.

Social events are another popular feature and ensure that the club is active throughout the year. The club owns 11 acres of woodland to the south of Oxford with a clubhouse used throughout the year including sauna evenings and an art club. Sunbathing lawns have also been landscaped.

Through the Oxford/Bonn link, the club is twinned with FSB Bonn and exchange visits take place at least every two years.
