Stella Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 I SOOOO want to be there!!!! Sadly it is a very long way away and on a 'school' night.... (If it was a saturday I would seriously consider riding up) I met Amy at the fish show and we talked a fair bit about mudfish. I am attempting to breed some brown mudfish for a massey uni project. Do you suppose she would allow up to video it? I suspect Richard Littin would have the appropriate gear.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
