    I am thinking about 1986 or 1987, just a conversation I've been having... anybody?

    I think it's correct, in my last year at Juniors there was a competition to design a badge for it, l started secondary school in '89.

    Thanks for that... Yes, that does sound right.... Remember going to an ITV Telethon event there, seem to remember it being a 24 hour swim thing...

    Certainly second half of the 80s (so 89 sounds right) as I remember going from Junior school just prior to public opening.

    threads like this truly baffle me. i'm not having a pop, just genuinely curious. why didn't you just google this? you would have got your answer in seconds.
