      @thebottomsupblog Update: I visited Sun Paradise and had a look (all Arena brand), and also tried a couple to get an idea of sizing. I didn’t realise that swimsuits were so expensive! Original price $115, but some had 40% discount or 15% discount. When asked about the cheaper ones online, the friendly salesgirl told me that they were probably older models from previous years. Cheapskate me decided to have a closer look online first, and I eventually bought an older model for $59. Waiting for it to arrive!

      Anyone interested in swimming at Queenstown Swimming Complex which has just reopened? I haven’t been in a swimming pool for about 10 yrs, but I feel I really need to get more exercise. I used to love swimming, so maybe the love will return.

        @sharonkhoo So glad you found something!

        I haven’t gone swimming in ages, but am open to long walks, if there is a chance!

          @thebottomsupblog Further update - the Shopee seller didn’t dispatch the item, so my order was cancelled! But I went to another Sun Paradise earlier today and managed to find the same item at the same price, so I now do have a swimsuit. That removes one more excuse for not swimming.

          I’m don’t like long walks in Singapore as I sweat a lot. Also, the pool is so near home that I really don’t have much excuse now that I’ve cut back on my commitments. Earlier, I had younger kids and more work, then there was Covid, then the pool was being renovated… Will try to get to the pool later this week!

            @sharonkhoo Sounds like it was a bit of a hunt, but great that you’re all set now!

            I used to love swimming as a kid, now long walks are the easiest way to decompress at the end of the day, I’ll even head out if it’s just a light rain! If I meet friends for dinner, I tend to make them walk haha

              @thebottomsupblog I’m constrained by wanting to get home for dinner (and I’m the cook!). We don’t really like eating dinner out unless it’s an event. Having a pool nearby is great, if only I can persuade myself not to be too lazy to use it! Will try to go once this week, and establish a weekly rhythm. Having a swimming buddy would be nice! My husband doesn’t swim as his skin doesn’t react well to pool water, and he prefers to run anyway.
