FC Demand.

I’m a little surprised how quickly it changes. By pure chance the last time I tested I noted and recorded my sun coverage, ~20%. Now just around 5 days later I’m at 40%. The sun seems to move quickly up and down but then lingers high in the sky over summer and low over winter.
 
Yep, water starting to warm up. In winter, pool is fully shaded, now back to about 50% sun on pool, FC demand starting to creep up. But still haven't dared to put my toe in. From about mid October pool is on full sun again, that's when it becomes swimmable. But until November / December depending on weather to actually be enjoyable.

5 or 10 damp towels hanging on the line, kids laying on the ground to warm up or pretending to score tries off grubber kicks, girls shooting goals and dreaming of playing GA for Aus, table laden with fresh prawns, barramundi, eye fillet off the barbecue, sausage sangas for the fussy kids, a coldie in your hand, crackle, salad just picked, sticky date pudding, pavlova stacked with fresh fruit... yummo :)

uh oh, growling guts... time for a late breakie!

Nope, Nope, Nopety Nope.

Don‘t know what you’re missing. However one of my best pool experiences ever was swimming in the outdoor pool at Big Sky Montana mid winter. Snow in your hair, cold beverage in hand…
