Just walked past on my way to Central and noticed the Empire Pools gone.

When did this close down?

Empire pool gone? No way!

I read somewhere this week that there's been some geezer strolling around on the moon, can't be right surely?

There was some guy doing cartwheels off top board when I went. Think they called him spider. I made third board, I think it was the first solid board, not a chance of me going higher.

My dad used to dive off the highest board but hes a bit of a nutter with things like that. Went to Majorca when I was younger and he was jumping into the sea off of a cliffs edge with my uncle. Some people just have no fear of anything. :lol:

Went up there, but did i f**k jump, back to 2nd board :D
Remember hearing a story about someone doing a belly flop and his stomach split open when he hit the water, that kinda put me off, anyone know if it's true?

Back on topic, someone's knocked down gilfords pool as well
