# Portobello Open Air Pool

Portobello Open Air Pool was opened in Portobello, Edinburgh on Saturday 30 May 1936 at a cost of £90,000.

## Origins

Plans for an open air pool had previously been mooted by Edinburgh Town Council in 1928, 1930 and 1933, but were discounted - the main obstacles being seen as the Scottish weather and cost.
The objections on the grounds of cost were silenced when it became clear that hot water could be provided for the pool by the coal-fired Portobello Power Station nearby. It was claimed that the water would be maintained at an average temperature of 68 °F (20 °C) but at times it could be freezing.

## Pre-World War Two popularity

The pool could accommodate 1,300 bathers and 6,000 spectators. One of its main attractions was the wave-making machine which, at a cost of £7,000, was the first to be installed in an outdoor pool in the UK and could generate waves up to three feet high.
In its first season, 290,000 bathers and almost 500,000 spectators used the pool, bringing in receipts of £15,000.
The pool was open from May until September every year until the outbreak of World War 2 in 1939.
During the war, the pool was camouflaged to look like a field to prevent it being used as a marker for enemy bombers to target the nearby power station.

## Post war period and closure

It reopened on 1 June 1946. As well as being popular with swimmers and bathers, it was also regarded as one of the places to be seen, posing on the terrace. Sean Connery was a lifeguard there in the 1950s.
By the late 1970s the pool's popularity was on the slide. Suggestions were made on how to bring in more customers from the pool-users' association:
* Heat the pool, solar heating, with water jacket or polythene blanket overnight for heat retention.
* Install trampolines.
* Convert the grass area to a putting green, tennis court or for car parking.
* Install slot machines.
* Stage open air concerts, folk singing, pipes and drum talent contests.
* Develop the pool into a Scottish Aquatic Centre.
* Open a souvenir shop
* Improve the reception area by creating a coffee lounge.
* Build a sun lounge with a directional revolving area
* Create an all the year round gymnasium
* Encourage novelty swimming - such as aquatic bingo
The advent of cheap package holidays abroad played a pivotal role in its decline and its fortunes worsened in 1978 with the closure of Portobello power station. What little heat the water had harvested before had now disappeared altogether. The 1979 season turned out to be the last and demolition was approved in 1988.

The dorsal plates of each segment are very broad and the rear portion of each is segment ornamented with lines. Size ranges from 26 millimetres (1.0 in) to 55 millimetres (2.2 in) in length. Superficially they are similar to the living Polyzoniida in body proportion.

# Pourquoi-Pas (1908)

Pourquoi-Pas (from French pourquoi pas? 'why not?') was the fourth ship built for Jean-Baptiste Charcot, which completed the second Charcot expedition of the Antarctic regions from 1908 to 1910. Charcot died aboard when the ship was wrecked on 16 September 1936, off the coast of Iceland. Of the forty men on board, only one survived.

## History

In 1907, Jean-Baptiste Charcot launched a new Antarctic expedition and began work on a new ship, Pourquoi-Pas (IV), a three-masted barque designed for polar exploration, equipped with a motor and containing three laboratories and a library. It was built at Saint-Malo to plans by Francois Gautier, in his shipyard.
From 1908 to 1910, Charcot set out in Pourquoi-Pas, wintering at Petermann Island, on his second Antarctic polar expedition. He returned to France in 1910 laden with scientific discoveries; he had finished the mapping of Alexander Island and discovered a new island, Charcot Land.
In 1912, Pourquoi-Pas became the French Navy's first school ship. From 1918 to 1925, Charcot took Pourquoi-Pas on various scientific missions in the North Atlantic, the English Channel, the Mediterranean and the Faroe Islands, mainly to study underwater lithology and geology by means of drag nets, to whose material and use Charcot made major improvements.
From 1925 onwards, limited by age, Charcot lost command of the ship (though he remained on board as head of the expedition) for her many voyages around the Arctic glaciers. In 1926, Charcot and Pourquoi-Pas explored the eastern coast of Greenland and brought back many fossils and samples of insects and flora.
In 1928, Pourquoi-Pas set out to investigate the disappearance of the large French seaplane Latham 47 with the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen on board, which had itself been looking for the Italian general Umberto Nobile, who had set out to cross the North Pole in the dirigible Italia and not been heard from since.
In 1934, Charcot and Pourquoi-Pas set up an ethnographic mission in Greenland headed by Paul-Émile Victor, who spent a year in Angmagssalik living amid the Eskimo population. In 1935, Charcot and Pourquoi-Pas returned there to look for Victor and his three companions (Gessain, Pérez et Matter) and began the mapping of these regions. On 16 September that year, the ship managed to reach a small port to escape a cyclone which ravaged the coasts of Iceland.
In September 1936, returning from the mission to Greenland to deliver scientific material to Victor's mission (which had just traversed the ice sheets in 50 days) and after carrying out a survey mission, Pourquoi-Pas stopped at Reykjavík to re-provision with fuel on 13 September. They set out for Saint-Malo two days later, on 15 September, but on 16 September the ship was caught in a violent cyclonic storm and lost on the reefs of Álftanes at Mýrar. 23 of the crew were lost in the wreck and 17 survivors died before rescue came, leaving only one survivor, Eugène Gonidec, master steersman. Jean-Baptiste Charcot was one of the dead, aged 69. Pourquoi Pas Point and Pourquoi Pas Island were later named after it.

# Arthur Moody

Arthur Seymour Moody (6 June 1891 – 12 December 1976 ) was a British joiner and politician. He was a low-profile backbench Labour Party Member of Parliament for nearly twenty years.

## Early career

Moody was born in Kingston upon Hull and went to local schools run by the local council before training in woodworking at Hull Technical College. He was an active member of the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers from 1912, holding several union posts, and also joined the Labour Party. In 1934 Moody was elected to Hull City Council, serving a single three-year term. At the 1935 general election, Moody was the Labour Party candidate for Liverpool Fairfield, losing by more than 7,000 votes.

## Election to Parliament

In 1942 Moody was elected unopposed to the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party in the Trade Union section, his candidature sponsored by the Amalgamated Society of Woodworkers. At the 1944 Labour Party conference he replied on behalf of the NEC to a debate about housing. He was chosen again as candidate for Liverpool Fairfield, and in the 1945 general election secured a swing of 14% to win the seat by 1,147 votes. He then stood down from the National Executive Committee in 1946.

## Political views

Moody was a low-profile Member of Parliament who spoke rarely. In 1946 he criticised the National Insurance Bill for containing "too much Beveridge and too little Socialism". He was generally a loyal supporter of the government, but in 1948 he did break the whip to oppose an annuity to be paid to Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh after their marriage. However, Moody urged disciplinary action be taken against Labour MPs who had signed a telegram to support Pietro Nenni, the Communist-allied Italian socialist.
At the 1950 general election, Moody's constituency was merged with others and he was selected instead for Gateshead East where he opposed Konni Zilliacus, who had been expelled after signing the Nenni telegram. He beat Zilliacus into third place and emerged 1,719 votes ahead of the Conservative candidate. His majority increased to over 5,000 in the 1951 general election, when Zilliacus did not stand.

## Retirement

Moody was one of the few Labour MPs strongly to support capital punishment through the 1950s. At the age of 70 in April 1962, he announced that he would not be a candidate at the next election; however, he was criticised by the BBC TV programme "That Was The Week That Was" in January 1963 for not having made any speeches in the House of Commons since the previous general election.
