Those three chavs were bullies, and bullies don't take risks. They provoked you and if you had reacted they would have assaulted you and reported you to the lifeguard saying that you had behaved indecently and then went mad and attacked them.
Their performance was aimed not only at you but at anyone else within hearing in the pool. Some of the public may have agreed that speedos are wrong and felt themselves on the side of the chavs, others would have felt that what the chavs were doing was wrong but have been too scared to stand up beside you.
The pretence of interest or even friendship by a bully is a common ploy, for a moment you relax your defences, they read this as weakness and then mock you. Nothing you could have said or done would have made a difference, bullies only escalate.
You went into the pool today to swim your mile, they went in to provoke and aggravate someone, you went in in your speedos, you haven't said what they were wearing but I doubt they did much swimming. No need to guess whose side I'm on.
Since you use £'s you appear to be in the UK, so where are you ? Medway, Kent here.
