OMG I've just had the most bizarre experience. (This has a happy ending)

Last night I realised that one of the big fish in my pond was gone. It's a fish I took over from my brother, who'd kept him in a tank and named him Benedict.

( I never name fish, I'm superstitious about it, they die as soon as I name them. Also, fish don't seem to need names )

I woke up this morning with that heavy feeling. My brother had trusted me to look after Benedict! And poor fisho, had he been taken by a bird, or a cat, or just vanished? It's a crap feeling.

I went to have another look in the pond, and made peace with the fact that Benedict, was, indeed, gone.

A little bit later, I glanced into the pond and noticed a tail sticking out of a hole in one of the bricks. It was Benedict! He was so stuck, I had to pull him out backwards by his tail.

He seems a bit pale, but is eating and I can't see any obvious injuries so I think he's going to be OK.

I'm So Relieved.
