first shipment of koi this year

hi all,
        just to make you all aware,we are not forgetting
you koi keepers out there,we are busy ordering from
our agent,who is currently in japan hand selecting fish
we expect the shipment to arrive at heath row on the 15th
of march,and will keep you posted on our purchases,and
will post pictures asap,for those of you who are looking
for something special please let us know and we will see
what we can do,as yet we are undecided as to weather or
not we should go to japan and hand select ourselves,so
we will keep you posted on that score,
we are pleased to say the shop is coming along nicely and
you can once again get round the koi ponds without falling
over everything,so get yourself in and start to wet your
appetite for koi again as the season is nearly on us,

hello all,
    sorry for the delay in keeping you up to
date with whats going on in the store,as most
of you know,i never use the term it cannot get
any worse,because it normally does.
  will i didn't but it did,after the leaking pond
what should happen,yes the boiler broke down
and as everyone knows how lucky we are it
was not an economical repair so it had to be
replaced,so when you see me sat outside the
bus station with the begging bowl please give
generously,of course it could not happen when
we had the two warm weeks it had to be on the
coldest nights of the year,i must apologise to all
the customers who did not manage to get in the
tropical house due to all the staff hiding out of
the cold,but i did manage to get them out,even
though they where kicking and shouting a bit.
  we have nearly finished the trop house and
paint so hopefully we will be back to some kind
of order next week,and we will be cleaning all
the koi ponds and making them ready for the
start of the koi season,and the first imports of
the year,
regards paul
