  1. Fish tank maintenance day! cleaned a filter that needed some attention, don't know what the fish in that tank have been eating but the foam pads full of their no.2s was the worst they've ever smelled. A pleasant smelling house for Mrs SG to come back to tonight :-) there's no amount of febreeze.......

      Biggest Plec is currently 18inches, although 1 of them in there is due to max out at 40 (acanthicus adonis). The wife did have an RTC but he had an unfortunate chocking incident...... Silver Aro is still growing at about 20 inches, the wife's giraffe nosed catfish is the current big one at 2ft. There's a couple of 14inch peacock bass in the big tank and another 4 in a 'small' grow out tank (I've learnt over the years my definition of small is different to others, a 4ft tan...

      Wow! Forgot about stuff like giraffe nosed cats. Mainly kept smaller stuff. Got to 3rd generation with hoplo cats, and had stuff like lamplobrogus brichardi and boersmani rainbow fish breed. Also bred Saum (?) acara (I think that's what they were known as). Anyway not an option with 2 cats and a smallish daughter at present.

      It wanted me to have a self drive lorry, I'm not even allowed to learn to drive yet :)

  3. just had the best sandwich ever! Phillidelphia light between 2 slices. What's so good about that you ask? Well it wasn't 2 slices of bread, but 2 quality steaks. I will be having that sandwich again, maybe with some fried onions on the Philly.

  7. Fun day at sunny Felixstowe and Trimley st Mary watching containers do their thing with the every enjoyable Alan Bevan. Saw all 3 rail served terminals, hate to think how far we walked! On the plus side found a nice romantic picnic bench with 'nice' views to take mrs SG to, she'll love it......

      id you get the chance to see the preserved coastal Napoleonic Landguard Fort, which is now close to one of the container terminals due to Felix Port expansion

      We stopped at the cafe near the fort for a drink, but our attention was in the opposite direction to the fort.

       

      ........there was the lovely walk through the country side to get to the romantic bench, does that count? It would have a lovely view across the water if it wasn't for the container stacks and cranes in the way....

  8. Mrs SG keeps Butt-dialling me on her iPhone thing while at work. Even being 200 miles away it appears wives can still find a way of being annoying while the tv is on.

  9. if your official documentation states you'll run through a report with me 3 days before a group meeting concerning it, then don't ring me up saying you may not have it ready until just before the meeting, because I will make you look like an incompetent ######. This meeting's going to be fun, evil SG is on :-D

  10. Down the local having Sunday lunch with my parents, my brother, his wife and children. Playing 'I Spy'. my mum and dad both have a glass of wine. Me: 'I spy with my little eye, something begining with W'. 5 year old nephew (loud enough for whole pub to hear): 'Willies!!!' my brother high 5'd him.

  11. Day 2 'alone' in Norfolk. regretting forgetting to bring any small modelling projects with me to pass the time before heading back home Monday. Had to play with Lego instead. it was hell. Built another bridgehouse for another oo ship, this really isn't helping me shrink my modelling pile. Mrs SG won't be amused the day she comes home and finds another ship being built in the house.

  16. Fish fed. Foot wet. Lesson learnt; don't wear flip flops when feeding the big tank. No sympathy from Mrs SG, but I maintain it was her fish's fault.

      Already got enough fish tank stands.

       

      She's a very lucky girl!

       

      She wouldn't believe that.

       

      It's not tough to be a better modeller than me.

       

      Now there's an idea, me vs her modules and see which gets the most invites!

       

      Or she wins a night away from me......

  20. Mrs SG got fish-slapped earlier. Best mornings entertainment ever! The fish in question is now not popular with her, it left an unbelieveable wet outline of it's head on the back of her work shirt after it's impresive 5ft leap from the tank straight at her. High 5!

  21. So I decided to feed the fish at lunch time while the f-i-l's physiotherapist was round. This I feel was a mistake. Their enthusiasm for food has left me feeling lucky I didn't get bitten and the physio 8ft across the room is lucky she didn't get soaked. Who says fish are dull?!

  24. Well, Monday will see us dropping an offer on a property which Mrs SG and I both agree we like, and it's right beside a railway line and that's jot bothering her......Lets hope the drugs don't wear off until after the offer's accepted.
