The continuation of August's Project brought us to the rather impressive sounding Peterborough Regional Pool.

Admission of £4.40, the most expensive price yet, allows you to experience the slightly strange set-up. There are actually three pools: a standard 25m pool (which goes from shallow at one end to slightly more shallow at the other end!!?); a teaching pool (this is in fact just a really shallow pool for kids); and a diving pool (connected to the main pool which is very, very deep).

We spent most of the time swimming in the diving pool because you were not allowed to use the diving boards today. Although, you were allowed to dive from the side, Marie only did one dive because on this attempt her bikini bottoms feel down and she decided this is 'not a good look'. We did a lot of swimming today, probably due to the fact that you couldn't stop because it was too deep to relax and stand-up.

Another issue with going into Peterborough for swimming is the parking, especially when it coincides with The Posh playing. We timed it all wrong and had to contend with thousands of people all trying to get out of Peterborough at the same time. At one stage we had a scene reminiscent of 'Green Street'…

It was a good swimming session today, I'm not sure if we'll return to The Regional Pool, but I'm glad we visited. Swimming is DEFINITELY improving every time I go. Lovely jubbly!
