I don't think it is offensive at all ... just boring now, been too many of them to support various causes.

Do my best for this 'charity' by putting any old textiles in the green bag provided by H.B.C.

What superb publicity they have had for the calender.
They are sure to sell out now.

What a hullabaloo about nothing!!! There will be worse on sale come crimbo and the cause they will be in the aid of is the wrong kind of rising to the occasion! I think that what pics are shown are artful and in good taste. It will sell despite "prudes are us" trying to down the idea.

This is pathetic. Have these people who have been pictured in a state of undress nothing else better to do? The nude calender idea which started off in a Yorkshire WI some dozen years ago is now an old and tired cliche which is well past it's sell-by date. If this lot want to raise money then let them use their imagination and do something else rather than this boring old twaddle. They won't be getting 'owt from me.

Don't see any problem with it .... Kingston Fire Dept. do it every year, and the proceeds go to the burn unit at Kingston General .... and for the past couple of years Queens University women's rugby team has published one.
