Hamilton Council and Waterworld
As today is a public holiday, I headed off to the Hydrotherapy Pool at 9AM, even though their website says that it opens at 7AM on public holidays.
Like the other people there, I went home disappointed. We'd all looked at their website, but apparently, after an hour of calling council and the nice lady there doing some ringing around, we discover that they are not only putting up their prices; they are also changing their hours.
Wouldn't it be lovely if they saw fit to let the public know? Judging by the confused lifeguard that also turned up, they may want to let their staff know as well.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
