Greetings, gentle off-air, listener, and welcome to a bonus edition on Friday.

We always like to pop something in from the live show that Jane and I do here at Times Radio.

So that's between two and four Monday to Thursday

available on the app. Free. And obviously you have commercial messages, but free to you.

And this week we've been talking about Lido's. It is the time of year where if you are a fair

weather swimmer, your thoughts will turn to whether or not

the gusset is still safe on your winter swimming costume and you will head towards an open-air

swimming pool in the hope of embracing the British summer. Now, Lido's used to be such a huge thing

across the country, but many of them have been closed down.

But but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but there is a campaign group called Future Lido's,

which is aiming to open and restore some of those closed ones and is also doing some really good

work in communities who would like a new Lido in place as well.

So we had a conversation with Deborah

Aden, who is co-founder of future Lidoes. She was down in Westminster doing some good work with

those parliamentarians to further the cause. And Jane and I thought it was an opportune moment

to have a little splash around. Summer is almost here and thousands of people are flocking to the nation's Lido's.

Most of our old swimming bars were once in a pretty dilapidated state,

but there are suggestions that a renaissance is underway.

Deborah Aden is the director of future Lido's,

which is holding an event in Parliament tomorrow,

and she joins us in the studio now.

Deborah, we've got to clear up the thing that people always ask. Lido's Lido's. Martin says
