I really should know better than to post on here when I'm in a strop but here goes....
Been staying at a very nice hotel where there is a gym & pool. Went for a workout tonight & headed to the pool to do a few leisurely lengths. Just me & 2 other blokes in there.
I'm not the best swimmer in the world so when I swallowed a load of water & started spluttering I headed over to the side to cling on and regain my composure. In doing so I had the temerity to get in the way of one of these 2 blokes who totally let rip at me. I explained that I needed out & apologised which seem to make it all even worse. In fact the little fecker really was very rude indeed - apparently he was on a PB until I came along and messed it up.
Anyhow, I hung around until he went into the showers & made sure I stuffed the little bastard's undies down the bog before I left - which also wasn't very nice but better than punching him in the face which is what I really wanted to do
I know lycra louts on bikes have been covered extensively here but I wasn't aware of pool rage before. There is obviously some etiquette to observe but, seriously, this was a hotel pool not lane swimming at the local leisure centre....
