Hi all, hope you’re all ok. The September issue of H&E is out now - September… sounds a bit too much like autumn to me, but oh well!

In this issue, Rick Morley looks at the history and culture of tattoos, accompanied on a photoshoot by cover star Beth, who is herself a bit of an ink fan. Charlie Simonds pays a visit to Rivendell, in Dorset, which he discovers is the perfect place to relax and unwind naked; he also heads to a new riverside retreat in Wiltshire, which is opening up to naturist campers.

Peter Coates introduces the Japanese concept of Ikigai and how it relates to naturism, and a happier, healthier, life; Paul Rouse meets the couple who found their paradise in St Martin; Theresa O’Shea has fun on a sailing trip off the Costa del Sol.

Rayner Otter discusses ‘signs’ of nudity, and asks – they’re everywhere in Europe, so why don’t we in Britain clearly signpost our naturist attractions? Ray Ward delves into the history of the colourful Jaybird magazine, Steve Clarke picks his favourite nude hotspots in Cornwall and Robert Sanders continues his exploration of nature and naturism.

And of course there’s more from Anna, of this very website!
