Swimming

Really been enjoying this swimming thread but their are a few things wrong with it;

Numerous disparaging remarks about "mister macho-splashy-man". There is a big chance these people are waterpolo players. Swimming with a ball requires a shorter stroke which produces more splash.

Also the knowledge of London pools is ropey at best. The Shell building has a 33m pool, Parliament Hill lido is a massive 60m (unheated) and even St. Georges Pool by is 25m.

If you want to have some proper fun in a pool ditch the "zen" swimming and start playing polo. Nothing beats sprinting for the ball against another swimmer and being able to give them cheeky elbow while you're doing it.

thanks man. didn't know about the shell building pool. can't think why? and a cheeky elbow in the face to you too.
