Just touched 13c in the last 10 minutes.
Rising bloody fast. Was 12.1c 0600am this morning. Amazing what this cover does.
So have they said when delivering the covers lol.
Hope they turn up soon. I don t need mine on during the day. But need it on a night time.
Fish still eating like mad.
But sulking with cover on the pond. It will take a week or so for them to get used to it.
I don t normally cover untill mid to end of October.

Lost 3/4 profit on the cafe. From profit before pandemic lol. Was earning a bomb
Before 2 meter rule. Enough for me to retire of the oil rigs. We ain't doing bad though.
The lad who rendered the back way. Looks like he might be going down the road.
Up at court soon.
So front way is on hold rendering wise untill we see what happens to him. Smacked a copper. Roughing him up.
It's on video as well.
Patch says hello

We got the tragic news yesterday that Fred has passed away. See https://www.koiforum.uk/pond-constru...freddyboy.html
Members expressed a wish to memorialise his pond build thread here somehow.
I don’t want to change the thread title because it’s Fred’s thread and he made it. But I have made it a sticky.
RIP Fred, you were a wonderful man loved by all you met and we will all miss you2016 new 6000 gallon pond

Dear God, shocking news that, my stomach turned over when I read the email, telling me about this post, feel desperately sad for Freds family, he was clearly a loving family man, who will be greatly missed by his family and also by us posters.
RIP Fred sleep well my friend
