An exciting swim

I went to the outdoor pool again last night and it was all very exciting. The weather in the UK at the moment is appalling, there have been floods, hail and thunder and lightning. When I arrived , through the floods, for my swim last night the pool couldn't open because there had been lightning in the area.
Apparently swimming pools have to be closed for 30 minutes after lightning has been heard in the area for safety reasons.
In the end we got in the pool and had a swim, after aboit 10 minutes the heavens opened and it started to hail really hard -- a most bizarre experience. It's great fun until you have to get out and change!
