POND LIFE

Last night we went to GBK gourmet burger king in Leeds city centre mainly because Burger King was shut down just the drive through was open ,  Helen had a chicken burger with bacon and avocado and i had a beef burger with  mushroom and horseradish sauce with a side order of jalapenos we had two lots of skinny fries and one side order of onion rings , along with two bottles of coke ice and lemon and the bill was just pennies short of £32.00.

We went home for coffee and to watch Jason Statham's new film "Redemption" not sure as to why in the U.K the films  title is "Hummingbird" why the difference i am not sure so feel free to enlighten me .

Today we went to Ikea we bought Pip our Jack Russell three new blankets in each of the following colors purple ,orange and beige we also bought her a red pillow for her basket.

After we went to Pet at Home and bought a 64 litre  fish tank with heater , pump  it has  blue and white lights for day and night , we bought two large rocks for £13.00 and a tree branch looks like mango tree also costing £13.00 but i am only guessing we bought sand and carbon filters for the pump , and three living plants , plus a back picture of rocks and plants to fix on the outside of the tank , the tank was originally £125 with 30% off which dropped the price to £84 brilliant , when we got it to the check out and the bar code was  scanned in it came up as £90.00 so they knocked 30% off that price and it came to £67.00 even better.
The mango wood or branch  is in the bath soaking and we are going to set up the rest of  the tank later tonight when Helen has finished her psychic class which will be around  midnight , but .it could be up to a week before any fish and other pond life go in .

My son Guy has begun working with a tree surgeon he did a couple of days with the owner of the company a while ago and looks like he will end up working with him full time fingers crossed .
