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
Emma's tanks are certainly quite an inspiration.

I have a feeling that some angry wives will be after me soon!

Mark is already talking about coming back in a few weeks time!

dont let him have any more from your syncrossus and skunk tank! i will be too jealous

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

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

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!

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

).
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

Thanks Helen.....the throat is OK now, but it did get a work out yesterday when some old friends visited that I've not seen for 5 years
I can talk right? You probably have a sore left ear
Oh ....and Mark.....nice move with the cat ornament man! You smooth operator you

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).

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
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

I thought it was the 'B' tank Graeme? I guess Grrrr is the politically correct, acceptable open website description. Wouldn't want to have to moderate yourself would ya?
