No!  Messes up ma hair! angry Prefer Yoga instead.

@almondjoy

hmmmmmmmmm. .  . . .   I'm strangely truly confused. how come you tend to classify swimming with yoga? Ok, I'll assume I'm in the dark, maybe there's something about yoga that makes you really love it.

Of course your hair will get tangled while swimming, if it's waistlong. By the way, I thought ladies were the only ones who really bothered about such things

No offense cheesy cheesy

Yea Almondjoy

Are u a guy or lady.

I want to assume u are a lady to be concerned about ur hair getting wet.

Anyway, some guys keep long dreds and jerry curls too.

Tthe "m" beside ur nairaland name indicates u are a guy.



No Offence

I guess the swimming club would be a good idea, at least for the fun of it. I also guess membership might be "almost free" .

No offense  grin & thanks for the great idea, from a great / thinking mind  wink wink

Re: Do You Love to Swim? by simiad: 9:59pm On Oct 30, 2007

Re: Do You Love to Swim? by morningsta(m): 3:29am On Nov 27, 2007
TOLA_BABE, ;DBiliv me swimming has got nothin to do with how big and busty u are. Infact big or heavy people tend to be poor swimmers because they tend to tire easily., but not to wori, with my trainin techiques, u should be swimming like a fish in a couple of days. So are u at Lagos? How abt we get 2geda for sm training sessions. I usually get paid for this, but for u its gona be free u know. cool cool cool cool cool cool cool

Re: Do You Love to Swim? by wham(m): 5:55pm On May 07, 2008
@Abujabooks,

Thats good. U'll get better at it if u just keep on practicing.

Always swim in groups (go along with a couple of friends and keep an eye on urselves)
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by iice(f): 6:29pm On May 07, 2008

Quite a number of 'em.

**Valencia Hotel (near White House, Aminu Kano, Wuse II)---Not too Big

***Nicon Luxury Hotel (Former Le Meridien Hotel, Tafawa Balewa Way, Area 11)---- Lovely pool

**Mediteranian Hotel (Maman Kotangora St, Asokoro)----Not too Big

Chelsea Hotel (Not sure abt quality)

Others are TV Hotel, Gubabi Royal, ,
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by iice(f): 10:54am On May 10, 2008
Hmmmm thanks. . .do you know how deep?  Anything less than 8 feet is no good for me
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by somze(f): 10:58am On May 10, 2008
You scared . . . grin grin
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by iice(f): 11:33am On May 10, 2008
Of 5ft plus? undecided
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by wham(m): 6:14pm On May 20, 2008
Iice You must be a fish

Or You must be tall. Actually a pool has to be deep enuf 4 the swimmer to enjoy real swimming

Try the one at Nicon Luxery. It offers a good range of dept and lenght. Its okay

Always Tot u were a Lagos person before your posts on this thread.

Cheers!
Re: Do You Love to Swim? by firestar(f): 7:02am On May 21, 2008
Oh I love ter swim. Last event was at Ikogosi. But the pool wasn't deep enough and moreso I spent half the giving lessons to my friends- But still, I relish scuba diving and swimming alongside dolphins. It's such a thrilling experience!

I wish there were more standard pools around apart from public ones without solitude you know.

@geezle you swim?! maybe i'll challenge you one of these days!

@ Almond you could use a swimming cap for your hair. I leave mine, then treat it later. Believe me, its better than Yoga.
