[Peter Pedant]

algal bloom ?

I dont think I would dive into it -
I might get ear alg-itis or something

hey - if a child in the audience got ill or something and the call went out over the tannoy - Paed ! Olympic diving pool

the crowd could shout back - we already know !

[-Talbot-]

Well it wasn't Sun Yang he ****es purple

[jno]

ah, pea-green soup

[Peter Pedant]

o god that is awful
dont pass into the pool as it will turn it green

and diver who dives well but hasnt taken an IQ test thinks
'o I will try anyway ...'

[mikey4444]

Wolfie...I am not sure exactly how many gallons an Olympic pool holds, but it must be an awful lot, so it had to more than one person who peed !

Another thing that surprised me about this pool is that it doesn't have a roof.

What would happen if the weather turn nasty and it poured down....would they still be able to compete ?

[DTCwordfan]

even the settling tanks are green....has Claire Balding urinated in them - or Matt the Prattt?

[Hopkirk]

If you are worried about a little bit of algae, don't go in the sea!

[DTCwordfan]

not with the chocolate eclairs floating around in the bay for the sailors or the rowers....no thanks, Hoppy...

[Hopkirk]

Have you never been in the sea on holiday DTC?

[mikey4444]

Another Brit Gold in the very green diving pool !

[DTCwordfan]

many, many times, Hoppy, but not with 6 million folk unloading their untreated sewage into the sea, even allowing for the combined anal efforts of Cardiff, mikey-sea, Bristol, Gloucester and even the shyttehole called Newquay.

Or the Scilly Islands......
