Fact of the day.

When I lived in Bermuda, the aquarium was touted as a tourist attraction.

Imagine my surprise (and assorted cruise liner passengers) to discover it didn't contain a single fish whatsoever.

A few paintings and a hole in the floor.

You had to look in the hole to see the fish.

 

Sadly the tide was out so all that was there was a bit of rock.

 

I went back home, wandered down to the tiny beach (through the islands hard waste dump) which we had appropriated, and took our newly acquired catamaran out.

I say newly acquired - it had been moored somewhere and a storm dumped it up into the Palm trees on the 20m long beach.

It sat there for a year or more until we got it down.

 

It's probably still tied to the palm tree where we left it when our contracts finished.

 

Funny old place is Bermuda.

 

The do like our Shaun though. He coaches over there now and again.

 

 

 

Is that the goats ?

I saw the bermuda, national orchestra, live at the albert hall once.

Was great till the guy playing the triangle vanished.

I’m not going to be koi about this… I’m glad I decided to trout myself to this thread. It’s gold! Betta than any fin I’ve read in a while. The only disappointment is salmon else came up with it, not me.

Sorry. It’s been a quiet day at work.
