Excitement - Followed By Disappointment

Daughter visited and She celebrated by taking her into town and buying more goldfish.

3 of the sweetest little babies for the kitchen tank - (They put the others into the pond as they had grown rather large) - which are just crying out for some attention. Shall go sit and watch later today.

And 4 big fish (Picked out by hand slightly to the annoyance of the girl who worked in the shop who had to perch perilously on a stool to reach into the tank in which the fish were all swimming around very busily) to go straight in the pond. One is a Hitler look-alike with a black quiff and tiny moustache; one silvery; another has an enormous tail; the last one is a pretty dark red and white. Daughter floated the bag on the water to acclimatise them and then carefully cut the bag and let them swim free. Great excitement.

All 4 fish promptly disappeared under the weed and stayed there.
