Group of open water swimmers were having trouble with the council at a local lake, last year. Its been used for years. Some of the guys train for channel swims, ice mile, raise a fair bit through sponsorship etc. Despite there being no accidents or emergencies over 40 years, because they were previously ignorant of it, but were now aware, it was ‘dangerous’. "Swimmers get immersed and can catch Weils" (ignoring the fact the NHS says its that rare it shouldn’t stop you swimming)
Didn’t do their case much good when in the middle of it Clarkson and Co were allowed to be down there, sinking homemade hovercrafts
