Four hundred people stripped naked and plunged into the sea off Wales on Sunday in an attempt to break the world record for the biggest skinny-dip.

 

The swimmers came from across the UK to brave the chill waters of Rhossili beach, on the Gower peninsula.

 

The existing record is believed to stand at 250 naked bathers in one location, and organisers plan to submit today's event to adjudicators at Guinness World Records in an attempt to claim the title.

 

Alison Powell, an online publishing editor who came up with the idea as a way of raising money for the Marie Curie Cancer Care charity and the National Trust, said it had gone "brilliantly". She said: "It was amazing. It's such a beautiful beach."

 

To break the record, the bathers had to wade into the water until it was up to their waists and stay there, shivering, for 10 minutes.

 

Rhossili beach was chosen for the 7am swim because it is long and reasonably hidden, sparing the blushes of the skinny-dippers and any passers-by.

She's going to have an intolerably sore right nipple with that cord swaying back and forth and catching on it as she walks. I hope that chap's got some cream in his bag for that!

Naked rambler fined for distress caused to dog walker

 

Naked rambler Nigel Keer, who walked through a popular beauty spot wearing just a backpack, boots and a baseball cap has been fined £315.

 

Keer, 41, was found guilty at Leeds Magistrates' Court of a public order offence after causing distress to a woman who was walking her dog.

 

The committed naturist kept score of the number of positive reactions versus adverse reactions he received on his naked tea-time stroll at Otley Chevin in Leeds on October 2 last year.

 

The court heard the score was 15-0 in his favour until an off-duty police officer apprehended him after seeing a woman looking at Keer with a ''disgusted frown''.

 

Pc Mark Buxton arrested Keer and ordered him to get dressed, which he did after pulling some clothes out of his backpack.

 

Pc Buxton, who was out running at the time, told the court: ''She had a disgusted frown across her face.

Naked Rambler Stephen Gough has been arrested in Fife just days after being released from prison.

 

Mr Gough, 53, had spent more than six years in jail after being repeatedly re-arrested outside the prison gates when he refused to wear clothes.

 

He was allowed to go free from Perth Prison on Tuesday and not re-arrested, in an apparent change of policy by Tayside Police.

 

However, Mr Gough was arrested over a breach of the peace near Dunfermline.

 

The arrest, by Fife Constabulary, took place in Townhill at about 14:00.

 

Mr Gough is in police custody and is expected to appear at Dunfermline Sheriff Court on Monday.

 

The former marine, from Eastleigh in Hampshire, first earned the nickname The Naked Rambler by walking unclothed from Land's End to John O'Groats in 2003, after quitting his job as a lorry driver.

 

He undertook a second naked ramble in 2005 which he did not complete until February 2006 because he was frequently arrested on the route.

 

Mr Gough returned to Scotland later that year to answer breach of the peace charges he had picked up during his naked walk.
