Hi again David

Yes - getting out of the pool is definitely the hardest part - the water is sooo lovely and hot but it's freezing cold in the change-rooms!!
I have to say that getting in takes me longer physically, as my knees don't like the steps, even tho' they're very shallow. Coming out again my knees actually feel great, and the steps are much easier to manage......but by the time I've showered and dressed I've stiffened-up again and feel as "old" as I did when I started

Hopefully it'll get easier with time.....

Thanks for your good wishes,
Sue
