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:
At one of my pools the :censor: noodlers just got the pool closed to all others during their classes.I asked why ,since there had always been a designated lap lane separated by a lane line that is never removed ,and was told that they had been complaining that they were getting splashed.
My goodness,imagine that,getting wet in a pool.
:bighug: I know, King Frog, I know; you have my sympathies. As you know from my posts on this thread and prior discussions at Nationals, I have been dealing with the same :censor: at my pool. For awhile, we were all getting a long just fine. I stayed in one of the two swim lanes and the noodlers (all 0-5 that typically attend class) had the remaining 3 lanes (22' x 75') of space. But, a couple of the ladies who hadn't participated in awhile returned more power hungry than ever and started a new campaign to get us swimmers kicked out of the pool during their classes. Horror of all horrors, the swimmers were getting their hair wet! So, their new tactic is to form a charter club which gives them higher priority for exclusive use of facilities for their activities. They presented their case and we presented ours, back in mid-April. Now we await the decision of the board... :shakeshead:
It seems to me that our situations are playing out in pools across America. I wonder if noodlers are this obnoxious in other countries. :worms:
