    My family are still there yesh, I have an uncle that owns a fish farm over there.
    It's mostly flying fish and rainbow trout, as far as I know. But another uncle, in Scotland, goes out on a trailer for a (not very good) living.

    Fish make me a wee bit squeamish nowadays, but I own a huge tank I intend on filling with fish a plenty when/if I get a house. It used to hold angels, tetra's, mollies, guppies, a silver shark and a crab. Stoopid crab crawled out through the filter tube hole to freedom and then was chewed to bits by my old alsation dawg.

    I used to be a flier, now I ramble.
    Hey you kids, never suck all the juice out of a tractor.

    I had to help crack a red tailed shark over the head with a dessert spoon.
    Wasn't nice at all.

    but i did it too

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.

    Feck missie that's messed up, poor crab, how cool is that Dog!
    as for the shark! omg, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9toEKpwtrKM&search=wazup Old but funny!
    I've never had a fish tank, they say it's quite hard to get the water right.
    but you sure had a good mix of fish must of looked great.
    some of the locals now use Lobster storage tanks filled with sea water, as the lobsters are now worth mega bucks they can keep a vast supply of fresh Lobster, Yum!
    my special Lobster curry, very nice

    Like that proved anything
    I'd like to say it was bragging but that consol to many divers is probably the equivalent of using a mobile phone more than 5 years old in a trendy bar.... or in computer terms...a commodore 64
    As usual, you miss the point, but hey-it wasn't my point.

    hope you dont mind me hotlinking it Buffy...


    well it's obviuos to see that that jelly fish is going somewhere, but I don't think he could have made it round to Blackpool from Sherringham in one day, so it's probably a cousin....

    I suck at scuba diving. Last time i did it. i sank deeper into marianas trench until my trainer got me in the middle of the depth. luckily wasn't deep enough to blow my ears and eyes and nose. and god knows what else could be blowing due to extreme pressure!

    Just found two more pictures,
    .

    Just found out about the jellyfish,
    Compass Jellyfish,

    .
    Lion's Mane Jellyfish - sting is powerful, divers who have been stung in the face report it like a wasp sting.


    @ Nigel, I don't know how far they can travel in a day
    will be interesting to see if they are about this season and in what quantity.

    I'm not going to prod them with a stick like sonja did

    had loads more, my fave was the purple red fighter that was picked to bits by f*cking angels. so gonna set it up again damn soon.

    half the fun, sickly, is watching how they react with each other.
    then they tear each other to pieces.
