Default how deep is your pool?

At first I was not bothered about the first house we buy in Oz having a pool, thinking that a few years down the line that the next property would.

However since have a bubs that loves the water, she is going to quickly out grow the bath being a pool to her, that the idea of getting a pool and being a bit further from the sea is becoming more attractive.

Plus, for me it would be a place to try out new dive gear if it is deep enough -
so how deep is yours? And if you want, you can tell me how big it is as well

so I can come round to yours and try out my dive gear?
you know I meant swimming pool and I want measurements (guys tend to overestimate distances without a tape measure)

Default Re: how deep is your pool?

Can't rember exactly (its been a few months since i've been in it ), think its about 2M at the deep end and around 1.2M at the shallow. Is something like 10.5M long and about 6.5M wide at the deep end.
