Belle Tout Builder Boys Calendar
Belle Tout is a British lighthouse on the English Channel (see the white cliffs?) that was extensively damaged during World War II, then rebuilt and renovated in 2008-2009 into a bed-and-breakfast. After the renovation, the owners persuaded the building crew to pose naked for a charity calendar to benefit Everyman, a project to help detect and stamp out prostate and testicular cancer.
The photo for February (above) features David Archer, the builders' boss. Like most of these English calendars, frontal views are concealed, but not rear views.
March features John doing glazing.
April features Bez, the plumber. The caption says he plumbs new depths of poor taste by wearing socks.
June features Karl, the foreman.
September features David Shaw, the owner of Belle Tout. The caption says he's taking the long view.
The October caption says that Simon Shaw is participating in the daily grind.
The November caption says that Hutch has more than bare carpentry skills.
Finally, December showed father and son Kevin and Erin. The caption says "Slacking? Take that as read!"

For me, the best one is father and son unashamed to be naked in each other's presence.
Agreed, my dad and me and my brothers were often naked together at the pool, or backyard volleyball. Sadly no photos remain.
I'd like John to glaze me.
What a fun bunch of guys.
Wha a Calendar!
