We arrived at the pool at 10.30am to find the pool open. This was a real bonus. because the website had indicated that it would not open until 12 noon. Lindsey the lifeguard and Ann the pool supervisor were very welcoming and we swam our 64 lengths of this 25 metre pool with ease as there were only a few adults using it at the time. In the changing room after we got chatting to a couple of lovely Scotsmen who promptly donated to our cause. Apparently in New Cumnock all schoolchildren swam for free: what a wonderful place! A great start to the day!
