Facebook and fish

In my house I have three aquariums.

One is significantly bigger than the two others and has six coldwater goldfish swimming in it (one big and five very small).  The two small tanks were bought for me by my lost love as birthday presents a few years ago.  At their zenith they accommodated a thriving community of Guppies. 

Guppies are live bearing and breed like nothing else.  With such short breeding cycles you can successfully influence new colours and shape strains within a matter of months.  Lots of interest was given to 'the Gupsters' and notes were kept on the kitchen notice board of their names, with corresponding tail drawings, identifying who was who.  I would recommend Gupsters to anyone, but most especially for families with kids.

With the 'no-plan plan' and after I had agreed the placement for Noggin I was now thinking about the fish.

"What to do with the fish tanks?", I said to myself.  Then the answer came, "Facebook!"

I try to keep my status updated or at least relevant to where life is and so I put the problem to my enormous cohort of 'friends' (a minority of whom I have seen, whilst the majority I probably have not seen or spoken to for 20 years and some are just strangers who wanted to be my friend and who appeared to be friendly enough).

Within a day an old pal had messaged back, her and her boyfriend were happy to take the big one.  This was excellent news.  The no-plan plan is now really coming together.
