It’s August, the weather is awful and my Instagram feed is filled with people messing about on flamingo inflatables in pools. Colour me jealous.
When I’m having a bad day, I will search on Zoopla for houses with six bedrooms and a pool in the local area. I can’t afford it but it’s on the lottery win list along with 78 dogs, a library and a room for trainers. If it’s a super stress filled day I look for holiday cottages with a pool. No idea when I’d fit this in or what I’d need to sell to afford it.
I love being in the water. Swimming gets me out of my messy brain and back into my body. My swimming is slow and inelegant but it gets me from one end of the pool again and again.
I go swimming about twice a year which is rubbish and I need a massive kick up the backside. There are pools locally and I need to investigate just after I look at this house on Zoopla with a pool and a sauna…
