J has joining me in the noble art of Fish Watching.  Dog disgruntled.

Fish are happy as larry now and are even (boldly) going up to the top of the tank for visits.  Very pleased.

I am having am immensely frustrating day - but not sure why.  For starters, my scalpel blades have gone the way of my acrylics palette and are now God only knows where.  I will just have to keep tidying until I find them.  The problem is that the blades have vanished as a direct result of tidying...

Time to go and hop in and out of the shower repeatedly.
