Tails from the Bark Side

We played a fantastic gig at Electrowerkz (Islington) last night! Sang, danced, got drunk, ate our weight in junk food... Afterwards we came out of the front door into a shitload of snow; proper fat snow too. We were expecting it (at exactly 6pm according my phone) but didn't anticipate such a flurry! It was brilliant. Bit of a pain driving home though - slidey 'n' scary. They were gritting all the motorways when we were on our way but they hadn't done any of the roads actually in the city. Numpties. People were abandoning their cars and sliding on their coats down hills and that, haha.

I have a fish tank! Tam and Nidge gave it to me with some bits and bobs for it. I spent today nosing around in all the garden centres, of which there are many around here, stopping in all the cafés for drinks and making a fish wishlist. Fishlist! I also bought a light for my tank. I need a drill to fit it though, so that'll be my plan for tomorrow. I finally got round to cleaning all the bits today. I've set up the stand and found a space for it. I have some gravel (black), some pretty stones and a couple of cleaning gadgets coming in the post, hopefully tomorrow, and then I just need to blag/purchase a filtration system because the one I've got is well '80s and completely outdated. I joked that most of the stuff looks like it's from the '80s, then I uncovered a bottle of some sort of chemical with an expiration date - 1988. Haha. I think that was when I last had a tropical fish tank! Just hope this one holds up once it contains 100 litres of water...
