Diana Was Already At Work,

as I made my way down to the shop,


it was a bit overcast, and a tad chilly in the wind and shade,

I looked at the house with the lavender growing outside of it,

the flowers just opening, the same as the field we visited yesterday,

a number 54 bus to the shop,

in one of the aquariums a clown fish with 2 hi-fin gobies,

a couple of aquarium systems ready for sale and the new marine invertebrate aquarium, which holds invertebrates for sale,

like these,

they are all types of soft corals or polyps,

some growing on rocks,

like the ones above,

also for sale are 'home grown' corals, all of the pieces above were grown by one of the customers, the individual pieces are called frags, the fact that they are grown in a home aquarium drastically reduces the pressure to take corals from the wild,

a few slightly different aquariums,

all like this one,

have lights that can change colour,

tall,

or wide,

there is one to fit on any shelf, after chatting with Graham and picking up my RO water it was home,

for our evening meal, starting with a read and sherry,

next a prawn cocktail,

eyes down and tuck in!

for our main course wagyu burgers, with peppered chips and onion rings,

the same for Diana sans the bun,

'Cheers!',

for dessert some of the strawberries, raspberries and cherries we bought yesterday,

after our meal it was feet up, a coffee for Diana a spiced rum for myself as we watched two Midsomer Murders back to back before we were off to bed.
