God help us,
Come yourself,
Don't send Jesus,
This is no place for children.

That could be a prison from the outside.
Not appealing at all.

Always remember having to step into a shallow pool of water that was filled with what smelt like Dettol ...just before you could actually enter the slipper bath ....it was always cold and made me cringe ....probably a way to prevent catching any foot fungal problems .....once inside the main pool every 30 minutes or so they would have warm water jetting out from the green coloured hand rail at the shallow end of the pool....it was very noisy as everything echoed ....getting changed inside the tiny wooden cubicles was a feat in itself.
You could even rent a bathing costume ...scratchy ..so much so that I'm certain it was made from sailcloth .
