I had rang ahead the previous evening and spoke to Chris the pool manager. He kindly agreed to let us in early at 11am when the pool staff arrived so we had an empty pool to swim in. We had waited
half an hour or so on a park bench and watched the boys cricket team practice. Donna, the pool lifeuard arrived at 10.55am and soon had the covers off and the pool ready for us. Dave was particularly
perky this morning rattling off a quick mile. He had been for an early morning run at Thirsk where we had stayed overnight so was up for it. Where does this man get is energy from!
