Andi closed the cubicle door and opened her gym bag, smiling to herself at the neatly folded swimsuit and towel. She’d occasionally nip into the health club next to the Proud Unity offices, for a swim at lunchtime, and Pippa would always spot the gym bag and get its contents clean and dried. In fact, she couldn’t remember the last time she’d had to clean it herself. She started to undress and thought about all of the little things that Pippa did which made her day-to-day life easier. She’d been a real blessing, and this, as an idea for a girls’ day out, was perfect. She pulled on her costume and nodded to herself. Relax and have fun, she instructed.

Andi stepped out of her cubicle and made her way to the lockers. Pippa had been right. The place was pretty empty. Andi pushed the fifty pence piece, given to her as one of her presents, into the small slot. She lifted her bag onto its side and shoved it forwards. Janet bustled in next to her and opened the locker on the left, doing the same thing with her designated fifty pence piece.

“She really has thought of everything,” smiled Janet, struggling to get her large workbag into the small metal container. “Fifty p’s for the lockers. Twenty p’s for the hairdryers, and she says, if we’re lucky, she’ll give us a pound each for the machines.”

Andi laughed. “My dad used to do that when we were little. He’d take us swimming every Thursday evening and as a treat we were allowed a packet of crisps from the machines afterwards.” She remembered that feeling of slightly tangled clothes, made damp by a lack of proper drying, and the pangs of hunger that followed a session in the pool. “I’d always choose Monster Munch.”

Janet laughed and made one final shove, slotting her bag into position. “I’m not sure Chez Garrét do Monster Munch.”

Andi attached the plastic strap to her wrist and tucked the metal key inside. “It’s ever-so expensive there. You really shouldn’t have.”

Janet put her arm around Andi’s shoulder. “It’s fine. It’s from all of us, and we did have to get a nice sit down meal into the day somewhere, Elizabeth insisted.”

“Good on Elizabeth though, for being so game.” Andi smiled as she walked with Janet out of the changing rooms. They pushed through the big double doors and gasped as the brick wall of heat and chlorine hit them with force. “Wow, it’s hot in here!”

Janet looked up at the array of different coloured chutes, twisting amongst themselves, some ending outside, some dropping down into huge plastic bowls, and some ejecting the rider into the rapids. “Wow! I didn’t know it was this big!”

Elizabeth coughed lightly behind them, making her presence known. “Is there any lane swimming?”

Andi turned around and found it hard not to smile at the pale blue bobbled swimming cap. “I don’t think so, but it looks like there’s a nice lagoon area over there.” She
