I can remember when I moved to Sydney, NSW, and first said the word "bathers"....boy did the girls at work all laugh at me. How was I to know that in NSW they are referred to as swimmers, or that in QLD they are referred to as togs???? I didn't, but that didn't stop me from calling them bathers, as to me, that's what they are. My father-In-Law often asks me when I am staying with them if I have bought my togs and it always takes me a few minutes to figure out what on earth he means :)
Anyway....(you may be asking what the point is of this blog entry.....) I don't know, I don't really think I have one.....Oh, yes I do. The point is that when we went down for a swim last night the pool was closed as they we rechlorining it (or something like that). How rude!!! How dare they do necessary cleaning work on the pool in the middle of summer when it is 45 degrees outside! I was quite disappointed, however, I do recognise that it is essential work that needs to be done and it only means no swimming for 4 or so days. I can live with that :)
