Default re gym pool

This suit looks like underwear rather than swimwear. To me it looks like polyester rather than nylon or Lycra. It doesn't seem to offer much support and the light colour suggests that it will be very see through when wet. It's not tiny or skimpy neither is it Speedo or even speedo. In brief it looks frumpy.

Wearing something frumpy and see through will upset the locals in a private health club. In a country where litigation is the norm there tend to be rules for every eventuality carefully hidden away ready for use. I have never heard of a "2 layer house code", it is something slipped into the rules just in case or written into the blank spaces in the rule book.

On this board we have repeatedly suggested dressing suitably for the location you are visiting. What may be ok for a quiet beach miles from town may upset people at an indoor public pool. Brad Cieslowski misjudged the reaction of the management of his private health club and was asked to leave.
