30 minutes

Thirty minutes is how long I have left until my jacket potato is ready, and I am starving!
I have a solitary minnow in my fish tank! He is a white cloud mountain minnow, he used to have a little shoal of five friends but over the years they have all passed away leaving this solitary little chappie, unfortunately over the last few years its not only been the fish that have passed on, the plant has gradually died too.
Yesterday when I went down to do Mouse I had a look in the river to see if there was any plants I might be able to bring home and use in the tank, I managed to collect some kabomba, (with out falling in too!! you should see how steep the banks are. Once back home I washed it thoroughly and treated it with something to kill any snails that might be on it I really hate snails in the tank, this evening I have put it in now all I have to do is hope that I washed it properly so that there is nothing harmful on it that may damage the fish and also none of those dreadful snails!
Good luck Minnow, enjoy your new plants.
(Oh good grief, that only took five minutes to write! still 25 to go)
