ME Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Chlorine is your friend. Mr hanky is not your friend. I disagree. Public swimming baths are a hot bed of germs. Went to Centre Parcs once, both kids got ear infections, never again. All those germy kids weeing in the pool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 I got ejected from our local baths for weeing in the pool. Probably shouldnt have done it from the 10m diving board to be fair. N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those germy kids weeing in the pool That's because centre parcs is the nearest some get to a wash when you look at some of the clientele there! Chlorine don't cut it.

ozzy518 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 I didn't see any mars bars but I did wonder why people dumped so many tea bags , the ones with strings, into the sea. Hmm They were tea bags weren't they ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 After watching a programme on tv about sewerage being discharged into the sea after heavy rains surfers were up in arms about it because local authorities dont have to say when it happens. I wouldn't be swimming in it. Something to do with the water treatment plants not being able to cope so raw sewage straight in to sea yuck, have a look online.

gixer1 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) gixer ,mate your spending to much time in the land of the free You still over there ? I'm going back in a few weeks,another six months of sun,sand and have a nice day Got back yeaterday mate, hence the reason I'm posting at rediculous hours of the night for the next week - jet lag seems to get me pretty bad! I'll be back there in October/november and hopefully it'll have cooled down a bit - average was around 104 for the last 3 weeks I was there! this is also the first time I've noticed the sacada phenomenon - what a noise! I fully admit I love the US - I was online this morning trying to buy Barq's root beer and Lays kettle cooked hale peni flavour crisps - found the Barq's but no lays jalapeño :( - so if you know of anywhere I can get these let me know! Yum! I would be the size of a house if I lived there permanently! Regards, Gixer Edited July 30, 2012 by gixer1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
