I've been subtly trying to ban goldfish bowls for years :)
In an interesting moment last week I applied for a part-time position at
one of the local pet shops - apart from a bit of cash to supplement the
'writing career', I was also after some human contact. One of the
reasons I did not get the job was, I believe, a statement I made about
the abject uselessness of anything smaller than a 100 litre tank for
keeping goldfish. Bad for business, I guess. If being in the pet trade
means I have to actively promote cruelty then I will sleep better if I
am not part of it.
Best regards, Andrew
