Hi it's Barrie, former abode was Cap d'Agde, France
Hi to All Members of Truenudists,
Just joined so it's time for me to introduce myself. I copy below a section of my Profile giving you all my details:
I am a Retired Englishman living in the South of France but not entitled to a Pension in France and not entitled to my UK Sate Pension for another four years! Hence I need to make some money on the Internet - not a lot - just enough to get by on!
Have been a practicing Naturist/Nudist for 30 years and spent eight of those years owning a house at the Cap d'Agde Naturist Centre and living there full time. Over the years the Centre has changed so much, in my opinion, for the worse. Sex, voyeurism and exhibitionism became the norm, even the Oltra Camping ground began to take on those values, so much so that it became embarrassing at certain times of the day to practice natural naturism/nudism. It was time for me to sell-up and I moved to Beziers, set-up a Snooker Hall/Bar and started work again. After four years of doing quite well with the Snooker Hall the French started feeling the pinch of adopting the Euro and the general state of World finances, created a situation where the Snooker Hall was no longer financially viable so I had to put it into Liquidation. Stupidly I had propped up the business for about a year in the hope that things would get better, but they didn't - hence the closure.
I was then not in a good financial position but I was entitled to the French Governments basic Social benefit payment which is only 400 Euros monthly but I seem to survive on that, just! I could go back to the UK but I love France and I would loose the main commodity I moved here for in the first place, heat and sunshine to arrest my worsening ailment of Arthritis. Living again in the UK would surely increase the severity of my Arthritis, so I opted to stay in France and deal with my financial situation as best I could - I would probably not be any better off in the UK anyway, I would still be on benefits but with a large dose of damp and humidity - you choose!
I am just looking for sensible naturists not into the values noted above. Not looking for a relationship in any shape or form - Just friendships!
Kind regards to all.
