One 100 free to go in set. Two open lanes.(no lane lines in pool) Noodler comes over to stand in my lane to talk with friend. Pool is set at 85 degrees cause all the noodlers say it is to cold otherwise. I complain to guard, am told, "well there are a lot more of them then there are lap swimmers" Wont be if they keep this up. UGH! :frustrated:
Elaine, so sorry to hear of your crazy story. I agree with Bobinator - to these people, they're past the point of caring about the pool... it's about winning the fight.
Just as an FYI, I DO teach aqua aerobics classes (the dreaded 'noodler' classes) and I can't think of any "moves" that I would have a class do that would require use of more than 3 lanes. I've taught classes up to 30 people in 3 lanes pretty easily. Plus, if these idiots are just working from a DVD, odds are that all their moves are stationary, which uses up even less space. Sigh. None of these facts will help you in the slightest probably, but thought I'd throw them out there.
I hope you can find a decent place to swim with a decent pool temp.
