Expand Sometimes I get very confused about this swim slot. For example, today I got a slot at a certain pool. Just before I went in, I checked the booking of that pool, itโs full. Thus, I would expect all 8 lanes in the big will have 2 swimmers per lane while at the teaching pool, there will be 1 swimmers per lane. However, I later noticed that the big pool only have 1 swimmers per lane and the teaching pool has empty lanes. So..... does that mean ppl booked a slot but did not turn up?

Geo Posted July 30, 2021 Report Share Posted July 30, 2021 Thought so too, hope they know they can be penalised if didnt turn up 3 times within a month.

bluerunner Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 It is a hot day today. Managed to go for a swim during lunch hour and just 10laps into my swim, the lifeguard came over and got everyone out of the water. Apparently, there was a lightning and it has activated the Lightning advisory. Everyoneโs reaction was, โWHAT?!?โ The sun was very bright and it was scorching hot. No choice, we got to get out of water. For the next 30min or so, we will not be able to get back into water. So, everyone left for shower and left the pool after that. What a misadventure.

With tighten control, we have difficulty in getting swim slot but we have a good swim with 2 swimmers (max) per lane. With relaxed measure, we can get a swim slot easier but we are faced with the challenge of securing a less crowded lane (more of avoiding self-entitled swimmer) to have a good swim. Honesly, I prefer the the arrangement with tighten control. MikeC, Geo, Smile bear and 1 other 1 3 Quote Link to comment
