Wife, mother, lover of dogs and fish. Teacher (secondary) and passionate about improving literacy acquisition and development in teenagers.<br />
After 16 years, life finally seems to be allowing me the time and resources to return to fishkeeping. Just enjoying the planning phase at the moment. Otherwise, I've usually got my nose stuck in a book (hard copy or electronic...makes no odds to me), either for study, work or pleasure, but I am occassionally seen haunting the local cinema, usually where comic book characters or sci-fi is involved.
My family, my dogs, planning my new tank, literacy difficulties and development in young people, film, music.

- Previously ran up to 10 tanks of various sizes, between 1990 and 2000; regular on the FSAS show circuit (with some success). Had to give the hobby up when I moved away to uni.
Now planning my return, starting with something in the region of 190 litres, broadly South American in theme. Bound to the be the first of 3 or 4 set-ups which will appear over the next few years...
