Fatten them up & I bet they'll go nice with some chips :P :P

My Dad keeps Koi. His ponds four foot deep & ten feet by ten feet. His fish are huge & one in particular is massive.
Never seen fish so big apart from on the tv.

Plaesed to hear you have taken advise and started off with just goldfish,mind you they can grow quite a size in time and being cvery hardy don,t worry to much about cold winters or much maintenance.

Give it 12 months or so and then increase your fish stock if inclined although with a bit of luck you may well have considerably more than 12 this time next year...kids again  ;D

Think of the commitment - goldfish live to 24  :o, I had one from a fun fair that survived to 10 until fly spray got in the water (kids  ::) )

For a minute I thought this was going to be a tale of your wife's infidelity with her lezza mate based on the text message you got earlier  ;D
