Paddling Pools

We know summer has arrived when the paddling pools start to emerge in gardens - all be it for just a couple of days to start with. Some families will have one stored away, that has been cleaned thoroughly and allowed to dry before deflating and rolled up tightly and put away in the garage or shed for the winter - these will be easy to unravel, and look as good as new when filled with water. Others, like myself, will find a crumpled, blackened plastic mess at the back of the garage, which means a trip to the local tip and buying a new one for the kids. Thankfully, you can buy a small paddling or splash pool for under £20, or a family sized for under £50.
