Butcher-in-the-buff

Prime beefcake: butcher Ryan Mornin was caught in the raw (meat section) at Peter Timbs Meats in Christchurch on World Nude Day.
Christchurch butcher-in-the-buff Ryan Mornin, 26, celebrated World Nude Day yesterday amongst the mince and tenderloins at Peter Timbs Meats in Edgeware.
Mornin, who said he had always been comfortable in his own skin, put up with a lot of double-entendre meat-based jokes in response to his nudity.
"I heard it all," he said. "I got things like, `watch out which sausage you bag up' and `be careful what meat you slice'. Customers know it's just a bit of a laugh."
Mornin said he left the shop only once to visit the bakery next door. He was careful not to walk too fast in case a breeze lifted his apron. He would have been unable to get his knickers in a knot had that happened.
