Goldfish buying - Hong Kong

We recently acquired a fishtank, so thought it was high time we bought some fish for it. As you may know, having fish in the house is very auspicious -- good luck -- positive Feng Shui, so not suprisingly, there are whole sectors of Hong Kong devoted to selling the creatures. (This, coupled with the fact that most apartments are so small it makes having a warm blooded pet unpractical - does not stop folks owning Husky dogs ).

Where was I?

Oh yes, so we took a trip up to the dark side (Kowloon) to get us some fish in the big fish market there. We had a great deal of fun choosing which fish & which in-tank ornaments to get. Then we had a very local lunch of BBQ pork; goose and rice. There were not many gweilos around - v. local ... Joss and I realised we don't do enough of this type of thing with the boys. Will try to do so in future.

Two weeks later and 5 of the 16 fish still survive! (One's looking ropey tonight mind you)>
