Now I'm not advocating a new wash recipe here (though I did think about posting it in the recipes section for a laugh!) but here's an interesting article about the alcohol content of a goldfish..

"If you put them in a beer glass and closed them off, it would take 200 days to get it up to 4%," said Dr Berenbrink.

"In nature, it just would not happen."


Read the article and do the math?

I have just swallowed 120 goldfish after chilling them in freezing water.

I have to admit to feeling somewhat queezy.

Could this be the alcoholic content? Or. maybe its the live fish swimming about in my intestines?

Come the Golden Hour, when things come to
pass, think of the relief and you wont
need any Andrex either Toper. ;D

I am going to commandeer the phrase "Golden hour".
It sounds so much nicer than the one that I usually use. ;D
