Me too. he and Jules and gazza have been scarse these days. I miss them. It is really cold in the uK right now, so they are probably huddled by a heater with hot tea or cocoa and a copy of the last Koi-Bito in hand. Wonder what temp his greenhouses and ponds are at right now.

Damn the last Bito? I would think they would have the newest one...Damn, they are probably using old KOI USA to keep the fire hot...

I think they use the koiusa's for tp in the greenhouse outhouse. Sure hope they don't throw it on the fire after that

What is the deal with the guy JR fights with over ph writing ph articles for them now, when his own water is super high ph hard water and he thinks it is ok??? He understands the chemical aspects of ph and water well, not so sure he knows how that relates to koi though??? It left me shaking my head when I heard about it. I will shut up now, it might be great article.

Has anyone ever asked Chris Neaves to write an article? I know he posts some awesome stuff.
They probably have the new bito's by now, wonder how cold it is over there. Last time I checked koi chat every two out three threads was on 'it's sooo cold' and 'heating pond problems' and 'what temp' and 'where do I buy a heater?'.

Hi guys, I'm just back from a month in Australia, spent the first 3 days in Perth, it was toooo cold, so Lynn and I set off 'up North', Exmouth for a couple of weeks, 40c plus and we were in heaven.

Caught a few sharks and know I'm back in the cold UK!!

Maurice,

PS, gee I'm cold!

Good to hear from you again Maurice. We have been missing you and Jules and the whole UK gang.

What temp are the greenhouse and ponds now?

Glad you had a good vacation, did you eat the shark meat?
