Colin died

[Blondeshavemorefun]

he was our catfish

had him years - mr blonde rescued him from a small tank and he grew big in ours

he was about 10 inches big

colin

he was a whopper!!!

no wasnt down the toilet

Ooops! just seen that ponders beat me to that one!

South East, Blondes.....I've got loads of the little blighters now.....they must have spawned somewhere....don't think they're livebearers. Got about 40 mollies as well....the shop insisted they sold me females only

im south east as well

kent

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - where are you to me - would love another colin - well maybe clive the catfish!!

solo - nothing wrong with sick humour - im love it most of the time

. I'm in Kent as well. Small world eh?

I'm in Kent too! not that that is important as I neither have any tropical fish nor want any atm!

Dd(2)has just looked at Colin and with a sharp intake of breath said 'woooOooow! pretty mummy'. She liked your now deceased Colin.

One thing that disturbs me Blondes, is your lack of thought as to Colins coffin receptical. Somerfield bags are just not classy enough IMO. If you are not going to use the best oak or even wicker in wich to hold his scaley bod, then at least use a Marks and Spencer bag. Personally, after 10 years as part of your family, Harrods would've been the choice of the Solo household. Ahem!

which

My dh is called Colin - I shall have to tell him he shares his name with a now-deceased cstfish!

RIP Colin The Catfish.

My exh was a Colin too... he wasn't as gorgeous as Colin the Catfish though.

Frankly I'm a little concerned as to the reticence regarding Colin's final resting place - you didn't eat him??

I had a plecostomus as a teenager, he was big too, about a foot. He was lovely. V relaxed

RIP Colin!

It's always sad when pets die.

Am quite curious as to the final resting place of Colin's earthly remains...

Well he was a catfish, I expect she fed him to the cat

(JOKE!!!!)

Is there some intention to smuggle him onto the fresh fish counter - hence the Somerfield bag? Are you locked into some nefarious pets for cash deal where they get Colin and you get £4.50 a pahnd?

Break your silence, woman, where is he?

Justice for Colin

No - I know where he went.

She has a very large dog. That's all I am saying.

Sorry about the name - bit of a long story.

Bella, that dog eats organic pork, I don't think colin would have got more than a sniff

there are too many fish threads on Mn atm.I am feeling shaky but can't stop clicking Where is he?We need to move on!

Dependant upon the size of the dog, a sniff could be enough....

Well, he weighs 10stone....

Noddy, I have become a little addicted to this thread too!

I know - it's pretty distressing from all angles.

Big floppy dead fish in a plastic bag for us fish phobes.

Blondie feeds non-organically certified fish to huge dog.

And a Somerfield bag - FGS!

Come back Blondie, we need to know.

Or we'll judge, oh how we'll judge..

Burial at sea, perchance?

Headline: woman swimming off Kent Coast finds large oriental catfish dead in her cossie...

Maybe it's the full Native American number - Colin's on a platform in full regalia while they burn his fishtank stuff?
