Friday 26th February

Had swimming today, luck-i-ly it’s got warmer, hate going swimming when it’s cold and there’s that time when you’ve got to go in the changing rooms and get into your swimsuit… and the floor’s really cold… and everything is shivery. And THEN you go through the shower on your way to the pool and it’s funny, tho’ you KNOW the water in the shower is hot it still makes you jump as if it’s cold when you go into it first of all.

Don’t understand that.

Anyway we tried out water polo after doing breadths, one of the pool life guards is with a team called the Stormin’ Dolphins! He had it on his trunks.

It was interesting but hard ‘cos you’ve got to swim and catch the ball and there’s a special way of throwing it to help you get a goal… and you can’t stand on the bottom and you have to throw with one hand. Was tired afterwards!
