Well glad you hear you have sorted out the fry Chagoiboy. Are you no longer looking because you have been given plenty :D or given up looking? :wink:

Camberley brings back fond memories of long wet nights running around it in camoflauge. 'Fond' maybe too stronger a word to use! :lol:

I now live in Hampton and I'm looking forward to the Middlesex/Surrey Branch meeting next week. If any of you double club members bet along I'll buy you a beer.
Regards, TicToc

Hi, not been given any, just given up on the idea, funds lacking....
Yep, used to see the army lads running around the woods around here. They used to do excercises in the woods behind my old school. One day at lunchtime we were in there walking around and i noticed a tripwire flare setup across the path.. we stopped and were trying to remove it without setting it off lol, then a rough voice came from the bushes "leave it alone!!" I laughed so hard..

Chagoiboy. If you do want some fry then you can have some for free. I', after a good home for them, not money. Some look like they may be decent sanke and showa (plus a lot of mutts)

Re: Anyone with a large QT? Am willing to pay?

Gents as it was during day light hours it will of probably of just been a flash bang rather than a flare with parachute. You had probably just walked into part of ambush or the KZ. Nonetheless, I think I would have reacted a little more than laugh with all those TK's (trained killers) running around the woods starving hungry. Your lucky they didn't take you hostage :shock:

I have a new dilemma. I have now almost finalised plans for my new pond to replace leaky first liner version. My QT is to small. I now need to house 15 koi (all circa 50cm). No Koi have been added to my pond in last ten years and all appear very healthy. Anyone out there with spare capacity for a couple of months? I am more than willing to cover all costs and reciprocate the offer when Revision Two is built?

Thanks,
