  • She. Is going. TO DIE!

    I arrived home last night, to find my beloved trevor fish on his side and looking a bit discoloured. I paniced, and immediatley changed his water so that it was fresh. Whilst he was out of his main bowl and in the temp one that i put him in while hes being cleaned he started tilting loads to his side. It was so upsetting seeing him like that. He has been so strong and fought it off for so long.

    I put him back in his main tank but left the bridge out. I thought id leave out the chance of putting something potentially infected back in his tank. He seemed OK to be honest, wasnt swimming on his side any more, but his balance was all fucked up. I gave him some snap and went out for the night.

    I came home and the first thing i did was check on him and he still seemed OK. He didnt look right, but i thought he might jsut be trying to get better. I went to sleep with a little tear in my eye, and woke up about 7am to find him floating on the top of the tank.

    To say he’s a little £2.50 fish, i was really really upset.

    I have jus told gemma and she seemed upset too. I dont care what she says, im buying another fish tonight. I need to have a fishy now. I want trev back tho 🙁

    Anyway, im so going to kill the woman in that pet shop. I cant exactly take a dead fish to work with me so i havent exactly got proof, but im gonna go in and moan like fuck!

    I could honestly cry 🙁

    R.I.P Trevor. 🙁

  • RIP Margaret & Reggie

    Me and gemma went out and bought a new tank, and a new fish the other day. Now either reggie (the new fish) or the new tank, or the new stuff for “cleaning” the water – has caused reggie to die, and take margaret with him.

    I wasnt too bothered when reggie died, as we only had him about a week. But we have had marge for weeks and she was trevs bird. 🙁
    Now we are really worried trev will die as it might of been an infection. If he does im gonna take him down to that fucking pet shop and go insane. Trev is my first fish, and the bestest. If he dies then so does the woman in the shop.

  • The Speed Of Time

    Time go’s so fast nowadays. I havent clock-watched for ages. It was one of the things i did pretty much every single day when i was employed. Id have done my work for about 4pm, and id be clock-watching to till half 5. 🙂

    We have been in business now for 3 and a half months, and even though each day flys by like speedy gonzalez, the months seem to be dragging! Not in a bad way tho, i dont want summer to come and then go like it usually does!

    Last weekend we launched our new mag, it went really well. We didnt manage to get everything we’d of liked done but the sheer fact we ran out of energy, time and man power meant we didnt reach our goal.

    This was our trade stand on the 2nd day, the first dayt it was smaller and we were having trouble getting people to us. The second day we changed the layout and using a few cleverly placed cars we managed to make a person trap and it worked very well.

    Gemma also found a new use for toms shiney wheels. Well, we were camping, and what do you forget when you go camping? A MIRROR!

    I have also been shouted at by my mother in law, for leaving a certain someone out of my blog. So here she is, its ruby!

    As me and dave were working all weekend and on bank holiday monday, I decided to have most of tuesday off. And whilst me and gem were in town we picked up a new addition to our family.

    Meet trevor, margaret and reggie! They are our pet Black Moor Goldfishes and they are the bomb. We have had trev for ages, then we got margaret and then on tuesday we got reggie, but we also got them a new bowl and some new stones for the bottom. The stones are actually bits of glass, but they dont cut you! And the bowl is a big round traditional fish bowl! Its ace!

    I think fish are as far as im prepared to go with pets at the moment. Id love a dog of my own, but i need to not be working as much as i do first.

    Anyway, back to work..

    Until next time.. 🙂
