Okay, so you may have guessed already that I haven't a CLUE what I'm talking about, but here goes any way...

You know those LARGE circular paddling pools, the ones that measure 10 feet across, have a single inflatable ring round the top for stability and erect themselves as you fill them with water? Well I was looking at ours today, and it seems to be nice and strong, made from what looks like webed PVC. It has to be strong, because it holds all that water back with no support from anything but itself. Any way, I got to thinking...

Could one of these pools be used as a pond liner? It looks LOADS stronger than the last liner I bought (which now has a leak), and works out at a fraction of the cost (£40.00).

Any comments on this?

Thanks,

Paul.

Not sure if you could use it as a liner but i have seen people using them as a pond. Well an above ground pond. We have one as well and we considered using it last week when we had a cat problem.
