..Boy in swimming pool today.." Grandad can i do a wee in the water"?...

[PinkChick]

..Grandad says "yes, but be quiet"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! {angry]..surely im nbu to this this is gross (yes i know it happens but to actually hear its ABOUT to happen sets your teeth on edge!)..but for grandad to think its acceptable to let him do it when the toilet is only yards away..but why "be quiet"??..how much noise is he going to make doing a wee in the water??..confused?..disgusting!..we jumped out and went to the big pool (this pool was jam packed with children and babies) in the hope the water filter and chemicals would sort it out before dd tried putting her head under water again, but 'Grandad' followed us in there, leaving wee boy and younger brother (about 4 and 2!) in small pool alone while he -did- -a- -wee- -himself- swam in the big pool!!?/eeh i dont know! LOL

Urine contains urea, ammonium and other chemicals. These chemicals react with chlorine to form trichloramine, chloroform, cyanogen chloride and many other toxic reaction products.

Trichloramine causes lung damage and asthma, chloroform and cyanogen chloride cause brain damage and spinal deformities.

Under no circumstances is it acceptable to urinate in the water. Indeed everyone should be pressure washed before you get in the pool.

Don't be bloody ridiculous! If that's true how are we not all dead? Rightly or wrongly, pee happens in swimming pools. Toddlers, incontinent people, lazy bastards, whatever, it happens. People need to chill the fuck out.

Hah hah I just weed a bit reading all this.

Thank g d I'm on dry land.

A few years ago I got thrown out of a swimming poll for weeing in it. In my defence I said everybody did it, the attendant said " Not from the top diving board they dont" and I was removed
