Hello *waves*

I've been hovering around for a while now, so thought I'd better introduce myself.
My name's Leigh (of the female persuasion), and I'm based in the North East of England. I've kept fish under one guise or another for about twenty years on and off, and have spent a few years in the trade; first with Blagdon's Water Decor shop in Gwent, and then in an independant in London.
I'd been out of the life aquatic for a few years, but I restarted again about three years ago. Cats were always my favourite (closely follwed by dwarf cichlids), and I've dismayed my partner with how many fish that you never see I've landed on him. I currently have a breeding pair of C. Sterbae, and have just set up another quarantine/breeding tank to try and get them to last the course.
Outside of fish, I'm a self-emplyed jewellery maker, with a lunatic Cocker Spaniel and *quickly counts* 16 rats (we rescue). I read like it's going out of fashion, watch too much sci-fi and fantasy, and am trying to become a proficient tatter.
