"How was your afternoon Simon?"
I had a great afternoon thanks!
I love going to my lfs on a Friday afternoon, the weekend stock is in or about to go in from the wholesaler.
My mate Rich was on his own and up to his eyes in it with 4 boxes of live stock to un box and acclimate.
"You busy this afternoon Simon?"
I spent 3 and a half hours (1 ciggy break with a coffee) and it flew by, I actually felt useful and appreciated, bagged a few things, un bagged loads and chatted to customers as I went along.
When I took this out of the poly box in it's bag I said to myself you are coming home with me!

So as I was leaving I asked the price, my mate checked the invoice, £71.25 retail.
He let me have it for £35 which works out at £10 an hour tax free, I can live with that!
When I lifted the coral out of the bag at home, it was un bagged at the shop by me but bagged by my mate, I found this in the bottom of the bag so then had to acclimate it, the coral went straight in!
