BRINGING THIS SCHOOL POOL BACK TO LIFE!!!

So mrs Feakes at Thurlow school emailed to see if I could help sort their pool out which hadn’t been used since before covid!
Due to no funding they couldn’t afford to pay for the job to be done! I did mange to find a sponsor as I do think it is important for kids to learn swimming as early as they can! Unfortunately the sponsor pulled out 3 weeks before we started the job. I really didn’t want to let the school down so took it on the chin and proceeded with the job.
It’s now all done and the kids can carry on learning to swim which is great!
Hope you like the video, please like, sub and share!
Thanks

I had some difficulty too even when using my headset. But I'm used to your audio like this when you're speaking. 😅 You are a wonderful human. Along with your team.

[@Eric1SanDiego1]

This brings back some memories. Decades ago, in the height of my fishkeeping hobby, I had ten freshwater aquariums at home and probably 400 fish. I had studied the hobby for years, collected 20 or so books, etc. I was really into it and my co-workers knew all about it. One of my co-workers had been renting a room in a house and the pool hadn't been maintained in years and was a bright emerald green. She told me the landlady was going to finally have the pool cleaned, so now was my chance. I arrived with a net and some plastic bags and rubber bands and I left with probably 200 live mosquito larvae. I fed these to my fish and they loved it so much that it inspired them to breed the next day. I gave the leftover larvae to the pet store who had helped my hobby grow. Good times.

Learning to swim SAVES LIVES. Its not just a fun activity that keeps kids out of trouble, it prevents tragedy. Youve done a great thing. Edited to add: can you weigh in the old filter for the value of the metal? Looks like it weighs a bit!

[@Engineer9736]

A brickmaker also prevents roofs from falling onto people their heads. And a toilet cleaner also saves lives by not having people afraid to go to the bathroom and thus crapping on footpaths on which someone may slip and break their neck. I think you’re stretching the hero factor quite much.
