The tank of fish has been staring at me for some time.
The fish themselves seem relatively indifferent to me, but the tank clearly dislikes me. To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure why. It could be that I've filled it with fish.
Perhaps I should have added one of those oxygen bubbly things.
Or indeed water.
Hmm.
Yes.
That could be it. Water.
And bubbly oxygen things.
I should buy some of those and fit them to the tank somehow. Then perhaps the tank will stop staring at me.
And perhaps the fish will start to move too. Rather than just, well, going mouldy at the bottom. Which I must say is less attractive a feature than I'd hoped to have in the sitting room.
Although visually quite striking I must admit, the smell is striking in an altogether less pleasing way.
But I digress!
I tried to post a fish once. To a priest of my acquaintance. He was quite displeased when he came home and found me squeezing haddock through his door.
Come to think on it, we haven't spoken since.
I should post him something else. Perhaps one of the mouldy fish from the tank, should they not start swimming pleasingly when I get the water and oxygen bubbly thing.
And a little castle. And some of those coloured stone things that sit at the bottom. Oh yes! My tank will love me then!
Stop looking at me!
Tank!
I will! Tomorrow!
Do fish re-hydrate? Pot noodle do, so I expect fish are the same.
Hurrah!
Perhaps I could just put Pot Noodle in the tank? Though they probably don't swim as well. And I've certainly never seen them make pleasing "bob" mouth movements. Or even attempt to flap their gills.
Come to think on it, I don't think I've *ever* seen a Pot Noodle breath using their gills. Do they even have gills? How do they breath!?
Perhaps they breath steam and that's why you have to use boiling water. Then they eat the sachet of sauce.
Yes, that sounds plausible.
Sorted.
Stop it!
I knew I shouldn't have bought a tank with eyes.

Do the tank's eyes follow you around the room? If so, might I suggest a mouse-trap? A humane one of course. Once captured, then you could release them safely into the countryside.
Then the hills will have eyes of course but if you stay in the city, it shouldn't matter. Dilly

I don't think it's the tank that's looking at you. Oh no. It's the bees. They're back again and in disguise. Yup, definitely the bees.
