How are you going to stop the sides caving in as you move forward ?

@@martinblackwell195 I'm going to cover them with a sheet of DPM to stop the rain from getting to them. Hopefully that'll stop it!
Would these block be ok if the external water table rose to above the bottom of the pool?

Good question. On my first pool and this pool i was fortunate enough to have well draining soil. Moreso on the last pool. The blocks would be fine. But I guess the structural engineer would need to specify thickness and reinforcement to suit. You'd probably need to tank the outside somehow as well. And install a hydrostatic release valve to stop the pool from turning into a boat. Which does happen!
