You shut your mouth!

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

We have just returned from Doncaster, where Lindsey and I went to the Morrissey Gig at Doncaster Dome! Now I am not really a Smiths or Morrissey fan, I was listening to Marillion in the eighties, Lindseys the Morrissey fan!

All I can say it was Absolutely Fantastic, I cannot describe the buzz, I am feeling, I am on a high! I know they are some children that read this blog, so I will try and not write any expletives, but if you know me, you know the normal phrase that comes before Fantastic, I would normally use!

Doncaster Dome is a strange venue, picture a sports hall, or school gym! It is very small, but upfront and personal it was! After all these years Morrissey can still rock, his band was excellent as well, good sounds, good band, Fantastic. I think everybody coming away from that gig felt something very special, a strange eclectic mix of people, from all generations. I spoke to one young lad who was born in 1989, he did not remember The Smiths! They split before he was born!

God Bless you Morrissey, it was a pleasure, I am looking forward to the next time!

Fish Collecting trip to Doncaster

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

Collected 20 Bronze Corydoras Corydroas Aenus from a local breeder in Doncaster (Many Thanks John!) this morning, and on returning dropped into Ranchu Aquatics, Selby and purchased Three Large Congo Tetras Phenacogrammus interruptus and a singleton Bleeding Heart Tetra Hyphessobrycon erythrostigma. Once all the tetras have finished two weeks in quarantine, they will join the other Bleeding Heart Tetras in the display tank.

Yesterday, evening I distributed the remaining Zebra Danios, between various tanks in the fish house. I originally purchased a batch of 20, but only 12 remained after the quaratine period.
