I LEAVE the office just before the traffic, which means I can be in the pool in Bellinter House in Meath at a reasonable hour and there's hardly anyone else in it. I don't like it when there's other people in the pool. Given that I was possibly the first paying customer to swim in this pool, I'm slightly proprietorial about it. A plaque might be a bit much, but maybe they could name it after me or something.
