Southall Swimming Club
A Memory of Southall.
I remember the club advertising swimming lessons in the 1950s. So many people turned up that we could not get into the pool. We all stood outside on the grass where someone demonstrated the crawl and breastroke. We all copied these movements and that was our first lesson. I gave up after 2 weeks having not entered the pool and eventually learnt to swim in the sea in Cornwall. Laurie Dormer lived in Greenland Crescent and if I remember it correctly his son died tragically, drowning in a lock when he fell overboard. He was recently married and I know it was a terrible tragedy at the time.
