Does anyone know how it operates on Sunday am with lane swin, jelly babies and general swim all on at once? Are Jelly babies and general sectioned off? I don't need the Jelly Babies session but with little un's, don't want to be forced into the deep end where I can't stand up.


Also are the sessions timed?


Thanks!

FYI - Yes, lane swim down one side, shallow end Jelly Babies and deep end sectioned off as general swim. Sessions didn't seem to be timed but got full and folk seemed to be waiting at reception to be told when there was space to go in.


Oh and Jelly Babies starts at 10am NOT 9.30am as per all the published timetables. Not clear why this is.


Organisation doesn't seem to be a strong point but the pool and facilities themselves seem lovely.

That sounds like a lot going on in one small pool! I'm just back from Crystal Palace, where I had a great swim in the big 50m pool with lots of lanes and plenty of space. We went last Sunday morning for the family swim in the training pool, had the pool to ourselves for the first 20 mins, and it wasn't terribly busy this morning either - highly recommended and only 10 mins up the hill by car.

We used the Goose Green pool on Sunday, and it worked reasonably well. We arrived about 10.30 and had a 10-minute wait to go into the pool, which was fine. The babies/small kids bit was full, but not massively crowded, and generally people were very considerate of one another's space. Had a lot of fun. It's lovely to be able to walk to the local pool.


Interesting that the majority of other parents in the pool were dads - clearly it's a 'dad thing' to take your kids to the pool on Sunday morning. I'd be jealous if I were left behind!

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
