So why do you need swimsuits on at Alton Towers?

Years since I've been.....................is there a pool there or do people walk around half dressed anyway ?

I don't think it has anything to do with public decency.

It must be yet another UK government health program to avert an outbreak of hypothermia!

They have a water park there now and apparently "skimpy" swimsuits are not good to look at! They do say that "spaghetti string bikinis" are also banned!

On a phone in on radio 5Live some people phoned in and said that the same applies to public pools in France - a hygiene issue apparently.

Sorry got that wrong I think in France you have to wear short shorts in the pool! Which would explain all the "continental gentlemen" wearing the same swimming costumes that they wore when they were young and fit when they are older and using them to hold up their paunch! I know there are english who look the same and haven't seen their feet in years.

Brilliant Mary, YOU SAID IT !! There is one guy who uses our community pool, oooeeerrr !!!!! We avert our eyes as he wanders past our place with his towel around his neck. Trouble is, unless we nip indoors, he stops to chat. I don't know where to look !

It's not just pools area, we have a bloke out our gym who wears' unsuitalble' shorts and if you are unfortunate enough to be in the same area as the leg press machine, you get an eyefull of what can only be described as ' BABY BIRD'........................................  think about it.
