To think that most people pee in the pool, on holiday? Do you?

[Blondiebeachbabe]

Just back from a hot holiday. Hotel had a lovely big pool, with a swim up bar serving all manner of cocktails, wine, beer etc. People would be in the pool for hours drinking, chatting etc. Surely everyone is actually peeing in the pool? And do you?

Most definitely not, but I do in the sea.

I was once on holiday, many years ago, and some drunk bloke was standing on the side of the pool at night, openly pissing into the pool. What total dirty pig scum that individual was. fucking animal.

I do think that pools are a liking to cess-pits. Just think of all the minuet bits of genital hairs/secretions/fluids etc that naturally fall from our bodies when in the water.

and then there are the people who spit water into the pool. OMFG fucking gross. I've seen my friend do this. VILE.

Just no...

No but you can hire me, I can be on the poo patrol

When I did my PADI course, the instructor told me to wee in my wetsuit to keep myself warm.
Made me want to heave as I thought about all those people that had done it before me, even though they disinfected them overnight 😫

A tiny baby might only produce a teaspoonful (and also can't control their bladder or tell you they need a wee, so it's kind of unavoidable that they'll wee in the pool), but there are also parents who tell their potty-trained three-year-old to wee in the pool because 'they're only a toddler', and I think anyone who has ever emptied a three-year-old's potty knows that they produce a lot more than a teaspoonful.

I read that too fast. I thought you meant hire you to poo!

Did you watch that documentary with Romesh and Rob where Rob pissed in his dry suit 🤣

There's far worse things in the sea or a lake

We were playing in a lovely clear little spring once. Carried on our walk to find a decomposing sheep just around the bend... my brother had washed his face in the water...

Yes if you are about 2 otherwise absolutely not, Disgusting.

You do know that many boats can flush their toilets directly in to the sea as long as they're not too close to the coast?

Poo and wee are also very different - urine doesn't generally transmit diseases, whereas poo very much does - so you really can't compare the two.

I definitely witnessed this when we went away last year, swim up bar, people downing loads of drinks and never going to the toilet.

Those chemicals are mythical, they don't exist.

I was so excited about our Cyprus all inclusive holiday with a pool this week. Now I'm apprehensive of a wee pool!

I don't think pool cleaning is the same as pool draining and I don't think there is a pool cleaning process that could possibly guarantee to remove all the urine without draining. Also you have a lot more faith than I would have in the standard of holiday let cleaning regardless of description or monies paid!

😂I am not sure I could do that, however for the right salary......

No chance. Disgusting. Grown up adults can generally hold it in until they find a toilet. It's definitely not a thing

I really wouldn't worry. In reality, the amount of water in a swimming pool is pretty huge, and the amount of wee in it likely to be pretty small, even if everyone was weeing in it (which they're clearly not). Chances are it will be very, very (very very) diluted - there's been studies done that calculate its about 0.01% of the water https://www.livescience.com/59792-how-much-pee-is-in-swimming-pools.html#:~:text=They%20estimated%20that%20a%20220%2C000,(30%20l)%20of%20pee. (and Chlorine will have done its job, so it won't be unsafe)

Indeed, everyone has their price 🤣. Never say never. I will await the mn post. Where are you going on your holidays this year?

That is most definitely a myth. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine-indicator_dye

I guess it’s not beyond the realms of possibility but you’d have to pay for the accommodation to be empty for several days whilst it took place plus the costs of doing the work which wouldn’t be cheap.

I’m on holiday at the moment and haven’t actually used the pool I don’t pee in the pool but you can tell the ones who do!

@Bagpuss2022 does it have other chemicals in it that change colour when mixed with pee? 😂

Just the thought of lazy grown-azzed adults peeing in a pool is enough to make me want to retch.

Eew, no!! You need to start getting out of the pool to pee in the toilet like a big girl. 🤢
