RIP Mr Mitch
now we wouldn't want to suggest the kids next door were getting hungry, but…............
with heavy hearts and saddened faces we report the recent death of Mitch Ryder (and the Detroit Wheels) Carassius auratus
we would like to suggest a minute's silence across the blogging world on Wednesday 7th September at midday, for you all to have the opportunity to show your respect for this fine golden creature. Although he led a short life he brought vitality and happiness to all who watched and swam with him, he will be sadly missed in his home of the submarine-in-the-fish-tank-on-top-of-the-chest-of-drawers-in-eim's-room-in-canley.
Diana Ross and the Supremes and Martha Reeves and the Vandellas miss their fine swimming companion.
a funeral will take place soon
donations to be sent to The Shevonites Home for Retired Goldfish
flowers accepted but only yellow marigolds
he was loved like one of our own

I would like to offer my condolances for Mr Mitch Ryder's death on behalf of the entire Tsolakis family (ostracised German cousins included).
Still. A question. If you were a porn star, what name would you choose to have?

Are there Waitroses in the West Midlands??? I didn't know they even existed before I came down to London! That's 5 years of Warwickshire for you…
Random, what's your favourite drink?
