If they've been sluiced down in the shower at the pool afterwards but not washed with soap etc?

At night before bed yes.

Quick spalsh under the shower at the pool, but dont do soap/shampoo etc there.

Save it for home where we have more control over the situation!

No, just wait 'til bedtime.

Yes, I take shampoo and shower gel and give her a wash there. Saves doing it when I get home.

Do it at night-time as usual too. Can't bear the potential tantrum at the pool, amplified by the tiles.

DrHorrible · 14/09/2008 18:27

Nope

Bath at bedtime as usual with a hairwash. Don't think it's reasonable to do thorough soap & shampoo after swimming lessons when showers at our pool are in short supply.

I think it is a good idea to get rid of the chlorine as soon as you can

MingMingtheWonderPet · 14/09/2008 18:37

Wash hair at swimming, so really doesn't need another bath in the evening

cheekysealion · 14/09/2008 18:38

proper shower at pool...

wouldnt do it again at home

Thanks for your replies - I meant that night at the 'usual bath time' rather than immediately after swimming - my ambiguous OP!
