Andy is the swimming pool still at Larkswood ? I learnt to swim there. You jump in get to the bottom (approx 4m ) then swim up. I could only swim vertical not horizontal.

That is the plan in the near future Look forward to meeting another P5 enthusiast. Best give Chuck Berry ( yes) our rep a ring as there was talk of a venue change, but at the moment it's two steak meals for a "tenner" which may make the journey even more enjoyable.
