has anyone encountered snobs in the pool?i know i have,they come in..say half an hour after you start swimming..then decide that they have your lane..you know they swim directly in your path even though you have swam linearly for 1500metres +...try keeping your path and you end up colliding...sometimes they appologise...sometimes they ignore..i have to change lanes....

    My pool at Beckenham has 3 lanes,slow,medium and fast,ok.Well,why do slow/medium paced breaststrokers insist on swimming in the fast lane????Even if a guy is doing free at a medium speed he will be faster than most breaststrokers.When you touch their heels to let them know that you are there all they do is carry on at their ploddingly slow speed and then stop you from overtaking them at the turn by cutting across you:mad:
