Windy, kind of sunny, about 8 deg

oops, sorry, thought it was the other temp thread, but I'm pretty sure the lake up the road would be about 8 deg

Well i've lost my pool thermo so don't know at the mo, would guess about the same.

NEVER seen it so full tho, and I think i've been keeping the top level too low compared to how it sits now.

Gained a few inches ...

From the garden.

This was only after one day of rain and it went green. After the next day there was a fair bit of soil washed in from the garden making it go muddy brown.

Haven't been near it for over a week, what with all the rain, but threw the creepy crawly back in earlier and the temp felt pretty warm ...

Expected it to be about 22 or sommit and 29C ...

In for an evening dip soon I reckon.

It's now a milky aqua colour. Still not clear and not very warm. The solar pump broke again and is off site for repair.

Re: What is the temperature of your pool now?

Dunno temp, but the bastard thing is green and cloudy again.

3rd time flocking it this season ..... Might as well have a pit for throwing money in - we just don't get to swim in the damn thing!!

I've been lucky this year. We went over last year with salt & chlorine, but even thru Winter and still haven't put anything in it! All the rain that's fell must've diluted it heaps, will get a check at the weekend, but must say it's lovely and clear at the mo ...
