I was leafing through some old photo albums recently when I came across these. First trip to Greece, 25 years ago, with my then girlfriend who I was hoping to introduce to #naturism I didn’t succeed but the holiday was fun anyway and I got to go #skinnydipping.

This summer has been really good for naked hiking in the UK mountains. We’ve had plenty of days of settled hot weather which is ideal. Here are a few from my my most recent walk in the Western Lakes. Very quiet, even for August. #naturism #freehiking #lakedistrict #nakedhiking

There comes a point in life when you stop asking whether you have permission to be yourself. You simply go for a walk. Preferably naked on a beach. #CreatorOfTheTroubleWithRosie #WomenWhoWrite #AgingRebel #BodyAcceptance #BlackAndWhitePhotography #RomyHarel

Smiling softly as she strolls beside the shoreline, she looks relaxed, confident, and completely at ease with herself. The expansive sky, calm ocean, and minimalist composition create a peaceful, timeless atmosphere.

What glorious weather we've been enjoying in the UK this week, perhaps a little too hot for some. But it has enabled me to get out #naked on the hills three times, plus a #skinnydip. Naked hiking is the only way yo go when it's this hot.

Summer has finally decided to put in an appearance just in time for Naked Hiking day. So I hiked up a mountain. Passed a few people along the way, no dramas. After such a slow spring it was a huge relief to get naked again. 6 miles #nakedhiking. #Normalisenaturism.

The online world is a funny old place. You find someone whose profile appears to coincide with your own views. Similar naked hiking pictures and comments. You follow, then one morning you open Bsky to be confronted by a close up picture of his d*ck. Yep, fooled again. Bye.

Usually my first #naked #mountain walk of the season is a cautious one where I feel my way back into #naturism. A few people about and I had two brief conversations, one humorously reminding me about sunscreen, the other, the weather. It just seemed so normal. Perhaps we're getting there.

Sometimes it feels like everything works the wrong way around. After a really dreary winter in the Lakes, suddenly we get the promise of this. Then a job comes up that I have to do and it cannot wait. Let’s hope it’s just the start.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

Before I discovered Twitter and then moved on to Bluesky I thought I was the only one who enjoyed naked rambling so I was very circumspect. Discovering many others who also enjoy this pastime has been a great benefit. Hope to meet more of you in the new year.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.
This is the saddest day of my professional life.
Today is not only the final recording of the latest series of The Infinite Monkey Cage, it is my last ever Monkey Cage.
I never thought that I would have to leave the show. I always imagined going on until | dropped dead under the studio lights due to a brain aneurysm caused by my final attempt to understand notions of quantum gravity or the shock of being told about fly maggot infestations in the sacks of macaque monkeys.
I resigned in September, after sixteen years of dedication to the show,
A show that I named and helped develop over all those years.
Unfortunately, my opinions outside the BBC have been considered problematic for sometime, whether it has been voicing support for the trans community, criticism of Donald Trump, numerous other outlandish opinions, including once gently criticising Stephen Fry.
These things were considered to conflict with being a freelance BBC science presenterIn a recent meeting where BBC Studio executives again voiced problems with me, I realised my choices.
Obedience and being quieter to remain making Monkey Cage, or 'Resign and have the freedom to speak out against what I believe are injustices'.
•
I chose the latter.
It broke my heart.
I love this show and I love the audience, and it is because of the audience in particular, that this decision was so difficult to make.
I kept thinking about all the extremist voices promoting hate and division. They are being given so many platforms, while voices that represent kindness, open mindedness, empathy seem to be scarcer and scarcer.
I felt I couldn't pamper myself with the luxury of silence.
One of my many privileges is that I am able to resign and I can speak out even if it is to the detriment of my career.I have thought a lot about my heroes, Sinead O Connor, James Baldwin, Audre Lorde, and so many more.
I think of Sinead's words, "the job of an artist is to be themselves at any cost".
James Baldwin said prejudice was really just a word for cowardice.
Audre Lorde, viewing her life, wrote that her only regrets were her silences.
I think of my father as I resign, he brought me up to believe in fairness , justice and kindness.
Though my heart is broken, it is also full of fire.
I apologise to our incredible listeners for my departure, your love of the show means a great deal.
I am so sorry to let you down.
I hope that you can understand my reasoning.
I have to accept that I am not what the current
BBC expects of their freelance presenters.Despite this I should add that I have always worked far more than my contracted hours to try and ensure the show was always the best it could be, as well as making myself accessible and responsive to the audience wherever and whenever I met them. Every night, we have recorded, I have been filled with determination to make the best show possible. This was not
"just a job"
I hope that with my departure I can be a better ally to the LGBTQ community, to the neurodivergent community, to activists fighting against those who aim to brutalise society, to those currently in prison on hunger strike, and to all those who fight for a more inclusive world.
From many conversations, I know there are many Monkey Cage listeners who support these communities and activists too.
The strawberry is dead.
Long live the strawberry. B
