My sister and I lived in Ryton at Burnaby Drive, from around 1965.I learnt to swim at this wonderful pool thanks to Ernie Broderick and went on to swim for my school ( Dame Allans ) and also Northumbria. To this day I still love the exercise. Now living in Egypt, I swim at night in an outdoor pool in the midst of the desert. I believe I could be the girl standing by the steps of the pool. Karen Cook
