Martin has your sore throat recovered?

And hows the hangover now Mark?

i got in trouble for going home and asking for another tank. its good to hear that your wives didnt give you too much trouble, Mark and Graeme :D

Emma's tanks are certainly quite an inspiration.

dont let him have any more from your syncrossus and skunk tank! i will be too jealous :evil: can you get locked up for fish-napping? i am still working on Tom to let me have a tank for syncrossus and for robusta. i took him to the pub, bought him beer and worked at it. i got him to agree to a 7 foot in the front room - but i dont think it will fit in the door :cry: :cry: :cry: and even if it would, that probably would not be wise to put that combination of fish together. i cant afford to get patio dooors yet :(

if anyone's wife/husband/partner/parents etc start to ring you up, you will have to pretend work somewhere else and havent got a clue what they are talking about :lol:

Ahhhh! But some aquarium manufacturers will build the tank on-site at an extra charge. Always a good idea for that must-have big tank that won't fit through the doors! :wink: :lol:

The hangover is fine now Helen, Thanks for asking :)

Joy couldn't have been angry with me anyway because I bought her a pressie while I was there, she had seen some cat ornaments locally and I saw them in the garden centre so bought her one (bribery always works :lol: ).

I'm really looking forward to coming through in October Emma, at least Joy cant be angry when I get loads of fish because she will be just as amazed at the selection of fish as I was :lol: .

Norwich County Court proceedings - September 23rd 2006

Nightingale Vs The Crown.

Legal precedent was set today when Helen Nightingale successfully defended the charge of Armed Bank Robbery with a defence of Insanity by virtue of Multiple Tank Syndrome.

You go girl! (but maybe just ask for a loan instead).

:wink: Martin.

I tend to keep away from cures and disease stuff, but in this case I do know the cure.

Martin armed robbery is cheaper than a loan if you get away with it :lol:

Mark that was a wise move with the gift for your wife. will she be coming with you next time? im glad she wasnt cross with you.

i think more glass boxes is the only cure - for MTS and many other things too :wink: :D
