We've never had our pool turn such a deep green, but occasionally it's had areas that look as though they are turning, so we've been able to catch it in time. I'll bet there were a few very red faces when that one turned that nasty shade of green ! Had the divers been peeing in it?
hahahahahahaha I was just thinking the same thing... pee ! At least there is no sewage, trash, sofas, dead people or chickens in the pool. Maybe there is ?

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!
This is a daily, optimistic, 'photos and comments' blog. I make no judgements (only occasionally), just notes. If you wish to comment in any way at all, please feel free. Everything and everyone (except the obdurate and dictatorial) is very welcome.
I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching).
Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!

DeleteHaha love it!!
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh Cro - I had just read about it in The Times this morning.
ReplyDeleteI wouldnt like a mouthful
ReplyDeleteThey'll have to zap it with loads of chemicals to get it clear again... you'd like it even less then! Poor divers.
DeleteI remember you put in vitamin c last year.
ReplyDeleteThat's right. We're now all very healthy.
DeleteI just cleaned the shower curtain ready for Morris.
ReplyDeleteGreen too?
DeleteAre you and Lady M going to do some synchronised diving this afternoon?
ReplyDeleteThat picture of our pool was from a few years back; otherwise we might have been tempted.
DeleteMine is only that color when the algae bloom and I don't swim in it.
ReplyDeleteNor do we. I can't remember what I did to ours... lots of chlorine I expect.

Ours has been slightly opalescent over the past week or so, then suddenly turned perfectly clear again.... pools have a mind of their own.
