Rivers, lakes and quarries for me, anything pretentiously ‘wild’ in fact. And sharks, I love a shark. Especially with chips.

So you are in the line of showers after coming out to wash yourself off and the bloke next to you decides to have a full on body and hair shower with suds and foam going everywhere.
He then proceeds to wash his bits and clean his bell end.

One of the great things about a swimming pool is it's one of the few public places free from the modern day scourge of stupid people and their smart phones. Unlike the gym, where way too many dickheads with no sense of self-awareness consider gym equipment a perfect place to have a bit of a sit down to play with their apps.

Im extremely short sighted - & once went swimming with the girlfriend at King Alfred. Put my stuff in the locker (inc. my specs) saw the pool in the distance & wandered through without a thought. Only trouble was, it was the women's shower area & changing rooms - but I hadn't been able to see the signs....much to my gf's (now wife) amusement. I couldn't see much of anything as I wandered through tbh...which was pretty annoying ;o)

I don't swim, but did have later than normal swimming lessons about 10 years ago. I quite enjoyed it, although one of my over-riding images was in the shower after. I looked down, and someone had left a 'sex wee' on the floor. That has stuck with me. Not literally, I had a deep cleanse.

It’s got better. That last hot summer, was it 94 or 95? I swam in the sea far to often and had ear and throat infections constantly

There's always that fat hairy bloke, who has what resembles an axminster on his back.
Not nice getting a mouthful of furball when they swim by

Club swimmers tend to swim a few lengths at a time and then rest. When I'm in the fast lane I spend quite a lot of time 'hanging around' or getting my breath back. When I'm at the end of the pool resting I'm always aware of other swimmers and get right up against the lane rope. The lanes are 50%-100% bigger in public time so there should be enough room to turn around.

The most effective swim training is, like running, a mixture of repetitions of different distances and speeds, so it’s normal that you’ll have people resting at the pool end. As long as they stand to the side, this is fine and there’s no need to move lanes.
