Pool not ready for swimming in yet - topped up the water level, dosed with first lot of chemicals and pump set to run through the night.

Gonna be a hot one tomorrow though - 39 forecast!

Got a couple of helpers roped in for tomorrow - and a man with a van arriving at (am. Most of the little stuff is all gone so just the big stuff and borrowed a sack barrow from work to help with that.

:fingerscrossed: It goes smoothly

There's a few palm trees over it but found the solar blanket in the shed so should be all good :)

Awesome. As long those palms don't drop those berries that clog up the kreepy krauly thing. You should be ok. Can swim in winter too with the blanket. Keeps it warm. :thumbup:
