Charity Nude Calendars Giving Nudism A Bad Name, Say British Naturists

Francis Pickett, the director of the Association of British Naturist Clubs, called the current obsession with naked calendars "absolutely pathetic".
He said: "These calendars have nothing to do with naturism and I am worried that they will get lumped together in people's minds... It's gimmicky and it gives naturism a bad name. I'd like to see these calendars stopped. Enough is enough."
