I returned to Brockewll Lido for the first time since its upgrade last week and again this weekend. Frontage / entrance much more attractive and appealing. Everything inside looks just that bit smarter / cleaner / cared for. Pool essentially unchanged - including sandpaper texture to the surround that's hard on the feet. Changing rooms are now clean and decent - but quality of build may not give them a long life. New cafe is good - tho' surprsingly understocked. All in all a definte improvement - with more work / investment to go. All we need now is the sunshine that makes a Lido really fun.

?5.50 for an adult session - which can be all day. I think membership reduces fees. Open 6.45m - 8.00pm Mon - Fri, 10.00am - 6.00pm Sat / Sun (which I think are strange times for weekend - later opening would be good). 10 - 15 min bike ride from our part of ED.

Have checked - this man was apparently known as "Dangerous" and has left the pool to work his style elsewhere.

      Repairing a sagging sofa

      By tropica · Posted

      I have a sofa of similar age, which used to sag, and I spent a stupid amount of time with the supposed 'DIY' solutions, which are all a waste of time and money. Then I woke up and realised that it can't be rocket science. When you say that the springs have gone, do you know what sort of springs you have? If they are zig zag (sometimes called serpentine) springs then it's an incredibly cheap and easy thing to fix by anyone with a hammer, screwdrivers, possibly pliers, and new springs which can be bought from https://www.jamiltonupholstery.co.uk/product/sinuous-springs-with-fixing-nails/ Obviously you can also get them on that well known website that we're all trying to avoid.  If they are box springs, then you may be able to replace a single spring, or you may have to change the whole unit, still DIYable but you may need a friend to help you. You may even find that a spring has simply come loose and it just needs clipping back into place. Access to the springs may mean undoing the upholstery under the cushions, or it may be that you have to turn the sofa upside down. The feet usually just unscrew and then you can take the dust cover off the bottom to see what's what. There are loads of YouTube videos to help but please DM me if you need any help.

      Post Office Lordship Lane is Broken

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      I think that sub post offices cannot operate without a formally trained person there, so maybe it closed because there was no trained cover, perhaps through sickness.
