Hi all 
Does anyone know where I can get one of those canvas type paddling pools from that we had when we were kids? You know, the shallow blue square ones with the metal poles that you connect through the canvas?! Can you even get them anymore? Or is there anything remotely like that out there now??! TIA

OMG Kirst, congrats, how did I miss that exciting news 
You have the age gap I am hoping for! Sorry don't know where to get the pool from, but those old school ones rock! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Hehe thanks  I just quietly posted an announcement in a few relevant threads and just set up a ticker today. To say I'm excited is an understatement!!!
Yeah the old school ones just seem so convenient. I don't want to have to blow one up every summer and the shell ones are a little bit bulky and not great for storage when you have nowhere to store it! Thanks arohanui (sorry - forgotten your real name for a second there  ).
