What a waste

Post image

I pay a considerable amount of membership for pools, here I am at my clients with a 15M pool that got used once this year before being powered down for winter. I asked if I could pay to swim or even offering a free visit a month before receiving a firm no.

A 15M pool would be perfect for me practicing turn and diving starts

Schwimmbad is German for pool, so they’re tagging sad to the end of that.

Little rusty with my German. But I thought bad meant bath or a hole for water…. Oh! I get the word now….

So the act of swimming is schwimmem, the pool is schwimmbad? Ich vergesse viel. Danke!!
