Xmas desaster

It's not as bad as the heading indicates, but bad enough for me! Yesterday evening I was fully set to go on my twice weekly swimming bout (2 km) only to find the public pool closed until further notice. Having heard that the pool attendant had taken to pneumonia, I suspected that they were unable to secure a substitute in this holiday season on short notice, and that was that. But no! Today I found this notice saying that a fault in the ceiling has been discovered and that the pool will remain closed until about end of February 06! What do I do?
