And Helen, there's lunch in it for you if you can ferry us between Peterborough and the shop.

Dave i am really sorry but i cant promise to pick you up and take you back to the staion this time.

the longest flight i have been on is about 2 hours, and i arive home from NZ the day before after a flight of something like 38 hours, then a car journey with the in laws, which can take them a long time, maybe 4 hours. i have no idea what the jetlag will be like, or how capable i wil be of anything yet.

i would hate to promise to pick you up at say 9.30 and wake up at lunchtime.

any other time, i am more than happy to pick people up from the station and take them back again, but this is just a bad day for me to try and get to a meeting

No worries, I hadn't realised. Hope you have a great trip.

Mick, we've got a cycled tank at work (currently with a couple of fish I'm going to take home at some point) that we could put some in. We'd love to take say 8 of them?

Mick, we'll always take them off your hands in exchange for something else, if you are a bit overrun with them. We have a shortage of females at the shop, the supplier always sends predominantly males. Please don't feel you have to, just an idea if you are getting short on tank space! :wink:

I also would normally volunteer to go pick people up from Peterborough station, but I'm going to have my hands full first thing sorrting out the 2 cats and 5 kittens, one of which is petrified of all the others, it can be quite a job.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Emma, they're still to small to go to shops but ok for someone to grow on.
i just fished out another 30+ fry away from a female, i can always keep the females back for another visit though. :D

Another loach meet? Excellent (-: Susan and I will be there.

Is anyone after any Pseudogastromyzon cheni? We have had a population explosion and need to move some on to good homes.

Oh the joy of trying to catch lots of small Cheni to transport them places.
