Hi,Thanks for putting this on.
I had my new Easter clothes pinched once from the Lido.My cousins and my sisters and me went there on our own,we didn't pay for a locker and someone nicked my new clothes.I had to go to the phone box in my vest and knickers to phone my Dad to come and get me!

I well remember my Mum and my Auntie taking us kids there,they used to lounge about in their swimming gear showing off,my Mum couldn't even swim.She did sit on the fountain though.

The rose garden in the park, and the swimming pool . That must have been the coldest pool in the world.
Love the kids climbing on the wall , would have got a clip round the ear for that and liked it. No political correct nonsense.
