It's been some time since the passing of Franklin and Fred, my two Siamese Fighting Fish, and like any death in the family - it's hard to move on when you miss your loved ones.Well, lately I'd been thinking I was ready for another fishy friend in my life. I also think Franklin and Fred would have wanted me to move on so I could shove my face in front of the tank and give another fish the fright of its life.
So...I did. I've gone out and found Reggie - a spritely little dude who loves human company and that of a stuffed toy bilby that came from a McDonald's Happy Meal.
So blogosphere - meet Reggie. Reggie, meet the world.
PS: I just saw my R.I.P. Fred entry and realised how similar Fred and Reggie's photo looks, so here's another of Reggie showing us his good sides (Fred was red all over. Reggie has silver and blue on his sides).
PPS: This shot was taken before we started the drive home to his new portable, plastic tank.
Isn't Reggie a cutie! He seriously looks like a good little guy and I hope he brings you many times of happiness.
ReplyDeleteAnd he does look very much like Fred too... I hadn't noticed either until I looked at Fred's photo in your post about his passing.
He must have reincarnated into another fishie to keep you company again. :)
