Schools out.

Oh bliss. My local leisure centre shares it`s pool with the school next door. But holidays I can take the 5 minute walk and pretty much have the pool to myself at 08.45

Re: Schools out.

Lol, less traffic too. But spare a thought for those of us looking for things for the darlings to do while the school is closed. I've got a kitchen like a bomb site this morning as cookies have to be baked and cup cakes are now being iced. I'm scared to pop my head round the door !

Re: Schools out.

If you get up early enough you could have the pool to yourself every morning.
My local pool is open for business at 7.00am.

Re: Schools out.

We have an open air lido as well as a heated indoor pool I can pretty much guarantee unless temperatures hit the 70s you can have a nice big pool all to yourself everyday

Re: Schools out.

You know a pool to oneself is odd-I had to wait a couple of minutes until the second life guard arrived. Then just me-now I know how a goldfish feels.

Two other folks of my age turned up and I felt more at ease.
