Fish and Fings

Ade moved the last of the fish over this week, last to be moved were the barbel and bream, the bream has been in Ade's pond for many years and looks in fine health.


The biggest 2 barbel are about 5 years old and are the most amazing colours and look in excellent condition, the 2 smaller fish are nearly 3 years old and have doubled in size in the last few months, all moved over well in tanks with plenty of oxygen pumped into the water and didn't seem any worse for the 10 minute journey.


Here at No 20 we are very lucky to have great neighbours, we have already formed a good friendship with Melody and Paul, with Paul helping Ade with some wood work so when the cement mixer turned up with 10 tonnes of concrete for the foundations of their new extension it was all hands to the wheel barrows to get it moved and laid.
