Once the gym starts, I cannot imagine how the single bench can accommodate so many users (they used to have 4 benches and even then can get crowded at peak hours). I don’t understand why they have so many toilet cubicles though… but I like the idea that we can pop into the gym, workout, shower, then dive into pool, shower again. Gym at Kallang basin has their own toilet. Maybe Katong too will have the same? Have to wait until the reno is over. Quote Link to comment

Curiouskiwi Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 New bi curious member here. I usually swim late on weekends. I’m glad the pool has finally opened up again. Everything definitely looks nicer and cleaner. I especially like the new changing room floors where you can see the guy next to you in the watery reflection. I instantly get a boner trying to see the guy next to me. Anybody else do this? I imagine if the guy next to you has a hard on that might be a sign he wants a rub under the stall? I definitely would. yuquidam, miles and Thatwasawes 3 Quote Link to comment

Info is posted on the pool listings on their website, the SportSg app, and a separate PDF list on works and closures. Then there are these adhoc closures that they happy happy put up, which people would miss if it's localised info. Lazy asses can't be bothered to even synchronise or have all the info drawing from the same source. And then 1 Quote Link to comment

firefight Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 Great swim today...Finally feel the catch water groove and form. Now to improve muscle coordination, strength and stamina. Only 3pax all unkers incl me. The notable one was in olive color trunks. At one time he was touching his deek in the water at the end, not sure if he was signaling anything to me but I continued to plough on. When drying I saw he had a hugeeee long flaccid deek... Almost 80% the small ruler kind of length. Not sure if it was semi but still.... And then and PS4 1 1 Quote Link to comment

firefight Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Had a great swim awhile ago. Got an office unker also take 196 go swim. We arrived and left at the same time on 196. Then there was black singlet guy who was very fair and swim well too. Another eye candy was the orange trunks guy tanning. While bathing I think I saw the bald unker stroking via the floor reflection, haha. Quote Link to comment

bluerunner Posted July 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2022 Surprisingly the pool was rather crowded on a Monday afternoon. Even more surprising was that when one left his lane to make room for new comer, the rest soon followed. End up everyone gathered in the changing room! To add to more surprises, people who had finished showered first, did not leave the changing room. Almost everyone left at about the same time!! Too coincidental, right? 😏🤔🙄 Quote Link to comment

Just left his shorts and T-shirt, also need the longest time to put them on. So obviously wasting time standing in front waiting for men coming out naked from the shower cube. That’s not all. He will manoeuvre himself to the left and right, front and back to that he could see the full frontal naked body. aiyoh… really need to be so desperate meh? Quote Link to comment
