Grace explained: “I dug out my own pool to get through this mini heatwave, it cost me £20.”
The homeowner used two layers of blue roofing material to cover the hole and filled it with water so that she could cool off in the heat.
Grace explained that she also added chlorine to water.
Her video has received over 300,000 views and many people have praised it.
One person wrote: “this is actually genius”Another added: “this is absolutely lush!!”
But, there were some cruel trolls who quickly weighed in and offered their opinions.
One of them said: “All that digging for literally one day of heat.”
Another thought: “how how u empty it thooo.”
Grace replied in the comments saying: “Let me address the repetitive negative comments.
“1. I had a whole day 27-32c, sorry you only had one.
“2. The amount of effort I put in shouldn’t bother you.
“3. It was empty with a bucket. (You can also get a pump). I then used the water to water the flowers. So no chemicals. It takes five minutes to empty.
“4. Why would I get a paddling pool it’s not even nearly as cool, I’m not lazy I don’t mind the task.
“5. It looks like it is in a pond since I dug it as one.
“6. Summer has just begun, I have a cool pool surrounded by wildflowers to enjoy while it’s here sorry if that upsets you.”
