If you’ve seen me looking gloomy recently, it’s probably got something to do with the news that Tooting Bec Lido — my most beloved spot in London — is closed for repairs, and unlikely to open until August at the earliest.
Call me dramatic, but I’m not sure how I’ll get through summer without it. The healing blue waters of England’s largest freshwater pool have become my go-to happy place over recent years: the one place I can rely on to boost my mood and straighten-out my thoughts, no matter how muddied my head was before diving in.
