Brilliant. Exactly why I don’t swim either; nothing worse than a full pool – it’s exhausting, and not because of the swimming. You spend the entire time actually expending energy plotting how to strategically time your lengths so you can get around Sinfully Slowy Shirley in front of you and not daring to take a break in case you hold up Aggressively Fast Fred behind you. And then there’s always Mildred and Mable who think ‘swimming hour’ is actually a time to swim (actually bob up and down on tiptoes) double breasted and discuss their hip replacaments.
