The good news it that the open air pool is staying open a few day longer until September 8th. The open air pool thrives on sunshine. Looking ahead ‘Heavy rain is expected for some areas of the UK on Thursday and Friday, but over the Bank Holiday weekend many will experience drier and brighter conditions.’
The campaign of the summer has been ‘Love Abingdon, don’t drop litter, bin it or take it home.’
It would be good if the sunshine returned and the children took over a cleaned up splashpad.
It would be even better if the swimming pool was open longer, maybe all year.
I would love that, well maybe not in mid winter, but when it used to open in June it was hardly used, even in hot weather. I went once on a hot day and there were only 6 people in it.
It’s not beyond the whit of man to heat the pool all year and for free….if only they tried to do so!!
