Oh!
I remember my very first goldfish as a child, Wilbur. I wrote a poem for his funeral burial in the back garden. Then I got a new goldfish called Loki and one of those fantail and poppy eye black ones called Thor. #pretentiouschild |

Giraffes and geese are a special sight though."

"One German Shepherd, 5 magpies. Some rabbits and a grey squirrel. "
Ooooh magpies:
One for sorrow,
Two for joy,
Three for a girl,
Four for a boy,
Five for silver,
Six for gold,
Seven for a secret,
Never to be told.
Eight for a wish,
Nine for a kiss,
Ten for a bird,
You must not miss.
Silver for you! |

I’ve just emerged from immersion in my computer fixing a plethora of issues. Feeling productive.
Now it’s a quick breakfast in front of me before I shower and head off to band rehearsal ![](/icons/s/biggrin.gif) |

I hope you are feeling better today lovely?
I walked my dog really early and saw about 7 deer and 2 flocks of Canadian Geese, or is it a Gaggle?
I also saw a man miss his train to London. He pulled into the station in his car just as the train was leaving. He looked gutted. ![](/icons/s/sad.gif) |

"Peppa fucking pig."
Don’t knock it. It feels like it was only 5 minutes ago my bambino was glued to the teletubbies and the tweenies. She graduates from uni later this year
I’d give my left nut to be back there..... |

It's because they are bad luck in singles.
Good morning mr magpie. How's your wife and children? And salute.
Apparently it wards it off. |

"2 goldfish,one slowly dying I think as it has that bloated thing going on lying at the bottom of the tank . The other one keeps nudging it,it looks like it's looking after it in it's final day's.
Oh!
I remember my very first goldfish as a child, Wilbur. I wrote a poem for his funeral burial in the back garden. Then I got a new goldfish called Loki and one of those fantail and poppy eye black ones called Thor. #pretentiouschild "
Damn it,the new goldfish food I got doesn't sink to the bottom it floats. They didn't have the usual stuff I buy so got these pellets thinking they would sink. Poor thing has no chance now as it can't get up to the top! |

With bloating it could be constipation. If you have frozen garden peas - microwave a small number. Squash them and feed a few of them to your fish. It helps relieve the constipation. |

Fauna wise? On my walk to work and back a few pigeons, a smattering of seagulls, a pair of swans, 3 smug ducks plus various dogs on leads. Then the slightly boss eyed grey cat from up the road was on my front garden wall when I got in just now. My zoological day has been bookended by two podgy cats in my own house; one much podgier than t'other. |

Oh and a few squirrels. "
How long before they came?

Taught how to add and subtract negative numbers.
Helped right and listen to about a dozen poems about diversity.
And spent an hour talking about Nelson Mandela and apartheid only to have one kid write and I quote:
"Nelson Mandela was some black guy who used freedom of speech.
