          • 'I'm a chef at a nude resort, cooking while naked is painful but I love it'



            Cooking in the buff might sound up your street until you think of the painful grease splatters that could occur.

            But one naturist who loves cooking naked insists it's a liberating experience - and that the risks are outweighed by the benefits of the unusual pastime.

            Chef Kim Lariviere, who works at a nude resort in Ontario, Canada, says she has learnt to stand back from the oil - which seems wise.

            She told MEL magazine : "You get spat at constantly when you make bacon, and my boobs get the worst of it.

            "I have to man the grill, the flat top, the burners and the deep fryer. It can get a little bit painful, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.”



            During the summer, the chef cooks for up to 100 guests a day, serving hamburgers, chicken wings and hot dogs to hungry guests.

            And in line with the ethos, she cooks completely naked - although some staff opt for protective wear.

            Though she was raised as a naturist, she says she didn't realise she started enjoying nude cooking until joining the camp.

            I'm saying nothing, although it's very tempting

            But she admits she's fared her fair share of injuries - although naturally these can happen clothed as well.

            She told the magazine: "When I’m cooking, it’s very warm because we have our salamander oven underneath the flat top, which is right at your private area."

            "If I stand there for too long, I’ll get a nice line of red down there.”

            "I’ve often thought, ‘Kim, just put an apron on...but I just don’t want the apron. I’m as free as an eagle and I hate clothes.”

            And while some might baulk hygiene wise, Kim said she even goes nude during the routine inspections - which prompted one of the health inspectors to join.

            Last year, British Naturism said they had seen a spike in numbers thanks to lockdown.

            Andrew Welch, a spokesman for British Naturism, said: “The whole social nudity movement is growing exponentially. We are building very fast with lots of new members, including people from overseas, who have been beating a path to our door.”

            • Very hungry bear ‘Hank the Tank’ is in fact three bears, DNA shows

              Officials say a trio of oversized bears is responsible for home invasions that had been blamed on a 500lb black bear dubbed Hank the Tank

              DNA evidence has shown that the 500-pound black bear the public had nicknamed Hank the Tank is, in fact, at least three not-so-little bears who have damaged more than 30 properties around Lake Tahoe in recent months.

            • Largely ignored by the intl community, someone declared war on the moon

              First they said it's Elon Musk, then maybe China, which denied it.

              However, the moon just shrugged it off

              A discarded part of a rocket should have crashed into the Moon's far side by now, say scientists who were expecting the impact at 12:25 GMT.


              The three-tonne rocket part had been tracked for a number of years, but its origin was contested.

              At first, astronomers thought it might have belonged to Elon Musk's SpaceX firm, and then said it was Chinese - something China denies.

              The effects of the impact on the Moon should have been minor.

              (snipsnap)
              The Moon's far side should now have a new crater after being hit by a large chunk of space junk.

                          I just hear Arnie's voice in protest that it is in fact a potato.
