Gracie’s First Pet!
Carrie took Gracie to buy her first pet on Monday, well two pets actually. And here they are Bill and Ben, but they are not flowerpot men, no, they are goldfish.
Don’t ask me which one is which. When I was a wee boy, I had two goldfish called Bonnie and Clyde. I even remember the time when Clyde died, I was heart-broken, and my mum put it in a matchbox and we had a funeral for it in the Murray Park where we dropped it off a bridge into the burn. When Carrie was growing up we always had fish. I had a four feet long fish tank which had goldfish and tropical fish. Goldfish are without a doubt the best pet’s in the world to keep, quiet, clean, easy to look after, and you don’t have to take them for a walk. Keeping Gracie’s hands out of the goldfish bowl might be a challenge.
