What a wonderful evening on 15th June for our first of three Lido swims in the Eastern Region. Yes, it rained for a while but we got to see a beautiful rainbow - and it was wetter in the water. The Peterborough Lido has classic 1930's architecture worth a visit in its own right. But it wasn't just about the swimming, there was the social aspect too, having a chat at the onsite cafe. There are two more events still to come: one at Letchworth (near Watford) and the other back at Peterborough Lido.
