My friend has recently purchased a house, he was contemplating having a pool, only to discover that the previous owners had a pool but have filled it in with sand, but he is not sure whether the pool is badly damaged, when we consult aquabot regarding it they said that usually they are punctured(it's fibreglass) and left to drain then filled, if we want to put a pool in do we need to remove this one or can it be repaired in some way, is this the only way that you can empty them. We don't have any contact address for the previous owners or we would ask them.

consult a fiberglass pool builder not the gardening group. I have a
gunnite pool, but the neighbor has fiberglass. Fiberglass can always
be repaired.
You've returned! Hurrah!

For some reason her messages from the above address don't propagate
to my newsserver, so they never appear on my newsreader. (I've checked,
and I haven't inadvertently killfiled her). There was never a problem
when V used her earlier addresses.Now it sounds as if Cheryl hasn't seen
her posts for a while either, which could mean the propagation problem
isn't just transatlantic. I wonder if other regulars in wreckedgardens
have been missing posts from jangchub/V (for months).

Janet
Actually, she dropped out for a bit. I checked on her and found her taking a
break from wrecked.gardens.

you can always line the pool with a pool liner. a lot of people give
up on their cement pools which leak and just line them.

now.... can you talk your friend into converting it to a pond????? on
the rec.ponds.moderated group they been talking about ways to use bags
of sand under the liner to change the shape of the pool, add shelves
for plants and still keep an area for swimming. so she could use a
lot of the sand to "sculpt" her pool into a pond. Ingrid

That's okay then, though I still haven't seen her return. Hope you
are feeling well V.

Thank you Janet, even though you don't see me! I have cirrhosis. I
don't feel that well, but my life is beyond my expectations and I am
happy. Bodies rot away; minds do not

I am sorry to hear that, and hope for a speedy recovery. Your mind
certainly isn't rotting, but I've seen a few cased where the mind has
rotted, but the body not.

Be in peace.

LOL! Yeah, there's so many ways to take that lovely wish.

I didn't use the term "wish." You did.


What do the words "may they get" at the beginning of a sentence mean if
it isn't a wish? Is it a Buddhist thing?

Get over yourself. You have
ruined this newsgroup successfully. Congradulations.

The WHOLE newsgroup? All by myself? Wow. What power you give me.
Thanks.

Good for you; how's the garden and wildlife?

Not an atom of space where there isn't something alive! Our racoons
left, thankfully and we have an immature opossum now. The one which
was living back there never came up to the house, except when he died!
He died by our back door. Maybe to say goodbye and thank you.

The ponds have frogs and toads and dragonflies developing. We handled
many rat and corn snakes this year out back and the populations of
anoles, fence lizards and skinks is gigantic.

Thanks John for requoting V's post so I could see it (if anyone
would do the same with her later ones I'd be very grateful).

Check your filters. You may have inadvertently put me in the filter.

For what, you top-posting moronic ostrich? Because I can't download
her posts? That's hardly a usenet crime, or even my fault. The cause is
outside my control and hers.

Maybe if you didn't top-post like some lame-brain newbie who can't
distinguish email conventions from usenet conventions, you'd be better
able to follow threads and understand other peoples' conversations in
this group. And while we're discussing your technical incompetence,
maybe you could learn that other usenet convention about editing your
quoted replies.


Check your filters. You may have inadvertently put me in the filter.

I already did, Victoria, you're definitely not in there. This has to
be a usenet propagation thing , I'll ask my news-server why it's not
picking up posts from yours.

Janet.

exactly right. Ingrid
