00:00Tell me about your job. Well there's a team of us and we look after the fountains,
00:06the interactive mirror pole that you can see there.
00:11And what does that actually involve? Well people think we just switch a tap on and we don't.
00:17We have a club room where we control the cleanliness of the water. It's treated as a swimming pool to
00:24make it safe for everybody to go in. So that means filtering the water, chlorine like you would get in
00:30a swimming pool, testing it, we control the height, the levels of it. So in summer we can fill it,
00:37we can have the fountains higher, lower, we change all the light sequences for different events that
00:43go on and generally making sure it's a safe environment for people to come down and enjoy.
00:48Have you ever messed around with it and made it go really high or really really low?
00:53Oh yes. Well you don't like certain people in the fountains.
00:59We do it when we watch, we obviously monitor the atmosphere and if it's a nice atmosphere,
01:04yes it's great to put the fountains up because everybody loves the fountains high.
01:09Obviously it's temperature controlled as well so if it's too cold, it's windy, we have to lower them
01:14because it blows across and forms a mist. So we do mess about a little bit with it yeah.
01:20Can it be stressful? In summer when it's busy we get a bit oh how many people have we got down here?
01:28Yeah. But no, as a rule it's not. We just, all three of us absolutely love our job.
01:45So
