Sunbathing in the nude? Don’t forget to tell the next door neighbours
GETTY [stock image] Sunbathers have been warned about being in the nude
Surrey Police yesterday issued advice on keeping relations cool in the hot weather and busted the myth that the Englishman’s or woman’s home is their castle when it comes to allegations of indecent exposure or outraging public decency. But following their warning veteran TV star Dame Esther Rantzen, 78, rhapsodised about the joys of sunbathing in the buff and urged offended neighbours to “look at something else.” Dame Esther, who celebrated her 50th birthday with a spot of alfresco nudity, said: “You must try it, it just feels completely different, you haven’t go the sweaty bits where your clothes are overheating you, you haven’t got the bit where the straps cut into your flesh. “You have got whatever draught or soft breeze there is on every pore and every cell of your body and it really makes you feel wonderful.”

However the advice on the Surrey Police Twitter account is sterner. “If you want to wander around your garden naked and you are overlooked neighbours then you have to be careful - an Englishman’s home is not quite his castle and your garden is not exempt from the law,” it warned. “In an ideal world, your relationship with your neighbours would be such that they would not object to you gardening in the buff and they would never dream of calling the police. “In the real world, however, you would be well advised to take some simple precautions.”
