Well, I notice that my profile comments do not actually tell you anything about me, other than confusing virgins and dragons…

I am an ex-tweep who does not sneak back any more. A shit show is a shit show and will never have the fragrance of a rose.

See the .jpg for story
Happy Turkeyday to those who celebrate. #Nudivember is drawing to a close and I am going to take on a new quest for next month, probably inverts but we will see. #MarineLife

Today in #Nudivember, I bring you a nudi from the waters of Sesimbra which I have posted earlier this month. But it is so beautiful, I am posting it anyway...

As we approach the last bit of #Nudivember, I wonder what I should post for next month?

It is the 21st of #Nudivember which is my sister's birthday. For that reason, you get to see another beauty which I have here in my local waters of Sesimbra...

It is #Nudivember the 19th and I am pretty late at posting once again. Sorry not sorry. Hey, it is the same day, right.
#MarineLife For more info, Alt text to your rescue

So, a late start again to posting on this 18th day of #Nudivember. #MarineLife

I have been thinking, and yes, I know that is dangerous.

Everyone says that a good friend will delete your browser history when you die. Nah, leave mine alone, thank you very much. Let people know just how perverted my brain was. And you are welcome to all of you who copy my links. 🤐

Today, day 17 of #Nudivember, I bring you a somewhat badly lit but sharply focused picture of a Felimare villafranca

If the bloody Dutch national team actually plays attractive football tonight, I will be posting orange thingies in the coming days in their honor.

I am just going to say that I think my diving gear is way cooler than yours. Prove me wrong. (Pro tip, you will not manage to do that)

If the Portuguese team keeps playing and scoring like this, Ronaldo may have a tough time getting his starting position back

For the 15th of #Nudivember, I am posting something splashy, colorful, out of the ordinary but then I realized that nudis are just that! #MarineLife

While you were distracted by pretty colors in a busy scene with anemones, algae and sponges, you looked right at a nudi, in the center of the photo.

It is #Nudivember, the 14th. #MarineLife never looked so good! (That is a lie of course. It has always looked good!)

So, the 12th of #Nudivember has dawned here in PT and it is time for another of my fun little underwater photo subjects.

#MarineLife
#nudiporn again. Don't blame me, I encounter it all the time! Maybe this is just how they spend most of their time.

It is the 10th of #Nudivember with my 9th post as my brain obviously did a runner on the first of the month.

Sorry, not sorry for the #nudiporn depicted
