Swimmin with Wimmen

The Doc, The Nurse and Genny The Beautiful (GTB) all agree I need more exercise, can't think why I do 20 press ups each morning 10 with each eye then I get out of bed.

In reality It is a good idea both of us need to keep fit. So it was decided swimming  would probably suit best.
Next question where? Our beloved leaders agree we senior folk should be fitter and have suggested that swimming ought to be free for us.
Our Authority seems to have chosen not to listen, fair enough, however across the border not so far away the Authority has a different attitude, no charge.

Anyroad up free or fee paying our local pool turned out to be the best bet.

GTB suggests we should try Aquarobics as a start, something she had done in the past and enjoyed.
So one Thursday I am in the pool waiting for the fun to begin, the only male surrounded by lovely ladies, it's to much I nearly have a stroke, just couldn't quite reach. (stop it thats not funny)

Now it begins. "Well," Another disaster, jumping up and down is ok but then comes the swimming aids, we are supposed to stand on them and stuff, I ask you "Have you tried standing on something that is naturally buoyant?" it's impossible, I look around, all is serene ladies bobbing up and down, for them no problems. Splash! all eyes are now on me, one helpful soul says "try putting your knee on it first" I try again, I am getting there just one more push then, Wham! it slips from my grasp shoots to the surface clouting me in the face, I yell fall backwards creating a large splash and wave, swamping the nearest ladies all are laughing they're swimming aids bob to the surface, class disrupted.
I have decided this is not for me, the giggling lifeguard says you can swim up the other end if you wish.

I am unanimous that from now on I am only going to open or adult sessions and doing lengths.
