My Daughter the Teenage Nudist Page #2

putting in the dictionary soon -

should be accepted everywhere.

You got any friends

that might be interested in this?

Er, a couple, not sure.

Right.

Right.

Not as up for it as I am.

Yeah, I find that a lot - a lot

of people don't wanna get involved.

I don't know,

I'm not a prude or anything,

but I think that sort of thing

needs to be kept indoors.

Daryl only managed to sign up

one new young member

at the naked bike ride, but his

enthusiasm is by no means quashed.

It's another miserable rainy day

in England,

but we don't care -

we're in a nice warm dry boat.

I can't open the back door,

er, not while I'm naked,

cos obviously everyone can look in

and poor old Bob, my neighbour,

he'll get an eyeful.

I won't force it upon anyone.

When it comes to considering others,

naturists abide by one golden rule.

It's more a common courtesy to put

a towel down wherever you go,

just like you take your shoes off

when you walk into someone's house.

Erm, it's just part of what you do.

It's hygienic, it's comfortable.

I think naturism is suffering

from a major image problem.

A lot of people have

dim views upon it

and think it's an old-fashioned

weird thing to do and it's just not.

With the majority

of traditional naturists

well beyond the first flush

of youth, the national organisation

has brought in Daryl to try and

bring the younger set into the fold.

Even here in the naturist clubs

we find a lack of young people

wanting to play,

it's not the in thing, is it?

It is an elderly population

and it's getting older.

We're desperate

for the younger people.

We need younger people to come on

and replace us older people.

This is Ian - Ian's our regional

rep for the Midlands.

In the past decade,

membership of British naturism

has dropped from 18,000 to 11,000.

What does it just say, three-year

plan? Does it say we're doing?

To reverse this decline,

the elected council are in the midst

of a drastic image overhaul.

This organisation has been built

on the foundation of people

who say, "I am a naturist,

I'm gonna join British naturism. "

That's great.

Not everybody feels like that now.

People are doing nude things

and not necessarily thinking of it

as naturism - skinny dipping,

people going

on world naked bike rides.

These people need a nudge

in our direction.

I do think, though, we ought to move

a little bit quicker on this.

It's a three-year plan -

we've got 18 months left.

Unfortunately, the council won't be

moving as quickly as they hoped,

as their youth officer Daryl

is nowhere to be seen.

as their youth officer Daryl is nowhere

to be seen. Anybody know where Daryl is?

That's really strange,
