| THE POND |
by Allan James |
It houses at the moment a motley crew of 6 assorted goldfish which includes a Sarasa Comet and a Shubunkin. I usually get some fry that survive every year, they sometimes go back into the pond the following summer or end up in somebody else's tank or pond. I have had in the past problems with cats who don't eat the fish but just leave them on the ground as a calling card, but since one neighbours cat has recently died from old age the problem has diminished. (so that was the culprit!)
Accessories include a plastic duck (male I think) which floats about the surface, a stone cat, you might be able to see in the top picture (its supposed to scare the real cats away!), and a garden gnome which was gifted to me by a friend ( I can't get rid of it in case he visits!) So there you are, exciting isn't it!.
