Stuff to keep paddling pool water clean.

hello last year we got some fab stuff from B&Q to put in the pool water which meant that as it has a filter the water was ok for up to 2 weeks. Cost £1.98 each but seeing as our water is metered worth it. We only got 2 lots to try meaning to get more if it was good - which it was only to find it was completely sold out at all our local stores. Any way stocked up today with loads, the nice man at B&Q said if it was anything like last year they would be gone before the nice weather starts. So buy it now it you need some. Hope it helps someone;)

    For larger pools they have -

    Does it keep water hygienic if you've got people peeing in the water all the time?
    Just because you used to be you think everybody else is, don't you?
