Death of Fishy FriendOne time when I was baby sitting with my girlyfriend for her niece, I decided i'd be a bit of a saint and clean the fishbowl out. Not only was I going to clean it, but I also decided to add a bit of landscape design so I snatched a rock from the front garden and plopped it in the fish bowl before sticking their 10 year old fishy family friend back in his home and left him to relish in his new, clean, re-sculpted home. It wasn't until later that weekend that I discovered that Fishy Fred had collapsed and snuffed it the morning after my good deed. It turned out that the front garden had just been sprayed with pesticide which led to Fred taking a turn for the worst as the chemicals led him to a slow painstaking death. Sorry Fred.
