That's right! - the pool temp is about 22c at the moment - same as the air temp this evening, but now we've been in FNQ for over 3 years this is winter. I'd have to wear a wetsuit to get in the pool now - and believe me, nobody wants to see that (think whale, beach, Greenpeace assistance)

So solar = Oct - Feb maybe ?! Still hope to be in mine before November, but will be looking into solar if not. |

Re: Anyone in their pool yet?
I don't have a pool but I do live right beside the sea - and no, no chance! Too cold still. Fiji is the only place I've been to where I can just walk in and keep going.
It's still a dip your toe in job here, shiver and hit the bar! |
Re: Anyone in their pool yet?
The kids have been in twice in the last few weeks.....but only lasted 5 or 10 minutes, the dog was shivering and my youngest having a proper Tantrum by the gate in his bathers cos I wouldn't let him in lol!
We are on the Gold Coast, Queensland and there's no heating in the pool. |
Re: Anyone in their pool yet?
I've got 3 layers on and am centrally heated thanks to Stanley cask wine ... <health bulletin ends>

Re: Anyone in their pool yet?
Ahhh.....good old Stanley Cask wine, the first glass tastes a bit :thumbdown:, but you really don't notice after the third :rofl:

We are on the Gold Coast, Queensland and there's no heating in the pool. Ok, not 'nice dip' temp, but ok for a 'quick dip' to cool off if it's hot. |
