Graham,
"Thats short and sweet,if not a bit blunt. "
Sorry mate. Definitely did not mean to be blunt, as for "short and sweet" has Bob been talking again.
Sincere apologies, I was at work and just taking a short break to read/answer a few posts hence it was definitely rushed and as a consequence "short and sweet". The bluntness was probably inferred from the fact that it was short but I can assure you this was just due to time pressure rather than anything else.
There is a real danger that sometime we read too much into these posts.
David.

Did you notice on Maurice's website Newsletter an earlier picture of the young Showa that I had so much trouble posting on this thread,there is no doubting it is the same koi but the change is amazing.That is why Showa are my favourite variety.
