I made a major commitment this week and bought a goldfish along with my housemates. I’ve called mine Susan after Ms Sarandon because she is more red than the others with slightly goggly eyes. Our goldfish have since become famous with a mention on live radio (well it’s not going to be pre-recorded is it rach?(er if you are wondering who it is that keeps criticising the text of Rachel in the third person- well it’s just my super-ego going berserk, weird eh?) ). So there’s two things to burble on about here:
1) we have learnt that contrary to popular belief goldfish do not have a three second memory - they can learn simple skills and remember them for at least six months. Oops, hope they haven’t got post traumatic stress disorder from when their bag fell off the table just before they went into the tank.

2) I also tried to get a mention on the radio the other day with another story. My Auntie once thought she had been poisoned and made my mum phone up the poison centre (did you know there is such a thing? well yes there is) when she unbeknowingly knocked an air freshener cube into her teapot and drank two cups of tea from it before noticing. Just as I was telling this story, my friend turned on the radio and we heard “We need an air freshener”. I text in to tell them about the spooky coincidence, but Vernon wasn’t interested. Hmph.
Have you had mentions on the radio? Home truths? Flirt divert? tell me tell me.
