Warning: Small death in the family!
Apr. 26th, 2004 10:00 amYesterday was a sad day in the Sildil Household. Eldest went to clean out the fish tank and found 'Clint' (don't ask!) his elderly goldfish had died....and I cried! Over a Goldfish!(well actually, silver, he had gone 'grey' with old age).
He was 16 years old though, which is pretty good innings for a Goldfish I guess. We buried him in the garden under the peony.
..and now to cheer you all up a bit, I found an old sketch book and here are some pretty piccies...

Date: 2004-04-26 04:58 am (UTC)We lived in West London, and In-Laws lived in East London..well, actually Essex, so when we visited at weekends we would take her in her cat basket on the tube, in rush hour..It certainly turned a few heads!
We lived in a flat too, with no garden, so would take her out for walks in the park opposite with a cat lead!
