I built a pool for £20 in my back garden to deal with the mini ‘heatwave’ and people say it ‘looks mint’

THE hot weather has sent most Brits into a spiral, but one woman has revealed a clever way to get around the heat.

Grace, from the UK, shared the savvy way she was dealing with the mini heatwave and people can't believe they hadn't given it a go yet.

Taking to social media, the savvy woman showed how she made her own pool in the garden.

She wrote: ";I dug my own pool to get through this mini heatwave.

"It cost me £20."

Grace revealed the heat had made her get creative and clearly wanted something a little fancier than a paddling pool.

Instead of forking out for one she decided to dig up a hole in the corner of her garden.

Once a sufficient hole was dug, Grace lined it with what looked like blue tarpaulin which is waterproof and can be bought for .

Once it was lined she filled it up with water and viola - she had her own private pool to stay cool in the summer heat.

She used a wooden bath mat to get in and out of the pool easily and bricks to keep the tarpaulin in place.

Probably feeling very smug over her clever idea - Grace filmed herself splashing about and relaxing in her pool.

What makes it even better is that her DIY job was cheaper than buying a ready-made large paddling pool.
