Does anyone recognize board member Luc in this crowd ?

Gitte, I do hope that our Luc has more style than to wear speedos with socks

!

And an exalt from me too : thanks to your picture, I now know at last for sure what is it that you guys call "speedos" . Some of the vocabulary that you've used in this thread just escape me, and I thought that I'd rather not ask ;D ...

Gitte, unfortunately, you get a smite from me for making me spit my morning coffee all over my keyboard. Nah...just kidding. I did ROFLMPPPO. A good way to start any day. Very nice indeed.

Well Laura...all I can say is that this site was originally blocked at my job. The internet filter said pornography when I typed in the address. Thankfully I found a way around it, but there you go...AND you got your question answered to boot!!

(Gitte - you are SO right ;D!)

THANK YOU, thank you, thank you for posting this information! We will be in Paris in August and my husband is a swimmer and I know he would love to be able to swim at some point during our stay.
This is our first trip to Paris and I had a couple of questions about these pools. Can you rent a towel and are there locker rooms available? Any assistance you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

I guess that's why we never got scolded for our mischievous behavior. ;D

Shoesy, isn't that why we all left the "other" forum: too many spankings!

Kinkora, I'm also going to be in Paris in August and I've been looking around the pool website and I can't find anything about lockers, locks or towels. They do say that they have showers and hair dryers. Then, there is quite a bit of information about the quality of the water, mandatory showering with soap, foot baths and how the staff is supposed to be courteous and efficient :-) My fiance is in Paris and I'm hoping he will investigate the pools before I get there...... if he does, I'll report back!

Hi Amy,

I found much of the same information that you did. We are traveling light and so I really don't want to have to pack a towel if I don't have to!! Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated. If I find out anything, I'll post as well!!

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
