It's all in the title really :)

Just browsed my new issue of PFK and noticed your article and addition to the panel.....about time I say, some well informed representation never goes amiss.

Congrats :)

Congratulations!

Some of their advice isn't that good, so nice to see someone who knows what she's doing.

No overt rolling around, slapping knees and laughing folks but I googled for PFK and came up with
PFK - PRUDENTIAL FNL INFLT (NYSE);
PFKACCUEIL · RESTAURANTS · CARRIÈRES · ACTUALITÉS · NOUS CONTACTER · LIVRAISON;
Playing For Keeps; and
OptiGen - Phosphofructokinase (PFK) Test - canine genetic testing.

Undaunted in my pursuit of the context of this thread I spent several minutes in cogitation as to an appropriate expansion of a PFK acronym and hence I googled for "professional fish keeper magazine".

Abject joy as the second item referenced was "Practical Fishkeeping magazine".

I spent two hours attempting to obtain an electronic subscription with no joy! Do the publishers not allow Americans to actually subscribe?

BTW Emma: as you are published can I rescind my yoyo/mlb post?

Thank you's. :mrgreen:

Kevin, yes the snail eater recommendation has been given out in the past (as it has in most publications) but I hope that the article will make people think twice about buying them for this purpose alone as it shows quite graphically how large they grow and more importantly details how they should be kept properly.

Here is the cover:

Well shoot: I wish that I had your pillow here Helen.

808x assembly language is no problem at all compared to what I have been into here.

I got a mailer daemon back from the email address and could not get the international phone call to go.

How about this if OK with you and/or Emma. (I understand that Martin publishes also and I presume that this is his vehicle as well.)

I hate to be a pain but I am at my wits end. Could one of yall call them;
Find out someone in marketing who can accept PayPal;
Provide me with their email address as well as their cost for a couple of years subscription; and
I will PayPal them the funds and provide my mailing particulars.

Jones ,Drop the first Zero and put 44 in place, then it will dial...1 is our Country code so do not use it first as long distance in the States needs , 44 is their Country code , the Zero is only neccesary while on the Isle so you will not use the first zero Helen 8) so graciously posted.
