Subject: fish problems From: fogie Date: 16 May 02 - 06:11 AM In view of the urgently cascaded advice from public health regarding not eating shark, swordfish and marlin, should I worry about my increasing dependance on mudcat, what health problems are lying in wait for us all. Whats worse I'm a pisces, and I work with mercury sphygs. Has there been a thread about the hazards of fish? |
Subject: RE: fish problems From: CarolC Date: 16 May 02 - 06:26 AM should I worry about my increasing dependance on mudcat Maybe so, fogie. Mudcats are bottom dwellers. Who knows where we've been and what we've been eating. Maybe it's time for you to become very afraid. |
Subject: RE: fish problems From: mooman Date: 16 May 02 - 06:34 AM Though I hate to disagree with you on anything Carol, not all Mudcatters are benthic species. We also have our fair share or raw prawns, angler fish, lampreys and slippery eels. I still credit most here as being real Mudcats though! Very best regards, mooman |
Subject: RE: fish problems From: GUEST,Crazy Eddie Date: 16 May 02 - 06:47 AM mooman, I believe I have apotted a few red herrings, and the occasional cod as well! Still, I school myself to flounder on, as I do enjoy the plaice. |

Subject: RE: fish problems From: Mr Red Date: 16 May 02 - 11:28 AM Me? Just small fry. Like the red herring gag - in theory - can't stand fish in the flesh. Maybe a song from Wales (I know baleanoptra are not piscatorial at all but it seemed funny when I thought of it) "W'ell kipper welcome in the hillside" Anyone for a game of sardines? |

Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: Ebbie Date: 16 May 02 - 08:41 PM If I'm not mistaken, the mudcat can travel overland quite some distance. Just look at how versatile and all-comprehensive we are! |
Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: Celtic Soul Date: 16 May 02 - 10:12 PM I hate to place a serious question here, as this thread is so very light hearted, but I do need to ask about the following: "In view of the urgently cascaded advice from public health regarding not eating shark, swordfish and marlin..." Can anyone tell me whazzup here? As meat goes, the only thing I eat *is* fish. Is there something to be afraid of that I have not heard??? Thanks in advance!

Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: fogie Date: 17 May 02 - 04:49 AM Dear celtic soul, There has been found to be enough mercury in certain fish species see above for a general warning to be issued in UK not to eat them at all if youre pregnant and only one portion per week if youre not or is it if youre a child. This has set people worrying about other fish like tuna |
Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 17 May 02 - 05:06 AM If yuou are interested in fish vibit Hull, there is a big aqurium (dont think i spelt that right, Its a big fish tank) look here www.the deep.co.uk There is a new fish market as well calleed Fishgate, but i dont think they got a website, i didnlt find one anywat.You can see it as you drive into Hull on the A63, you can get some cheap fish but you have to wake up early, Hull has got the best fish shops in UK (probably in the world anyway) and there is fish on the floor (Hull Fish Trail).john |
Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: ozmacca Date: 17 May 02 - 05:41 AM Jeez, yea, g'day... and all that Orstrilian stuff. When you hear what they say down here about us having the best fish (crab/prawns/lobster/beef/mutton/lamb/wheat/corn/oats/you get the point) in the world.... (well, they say it everywhere don't they?)... you haven't lived until you've tried a nice fresh barramundi big enough to hang over the plate all round. Mind you, if you try some of the oysters they're talking about from some of the rivers on our coastline, you might not live much longer. Think I'll stick to porridge. |

Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: John MacKenzie Date: 17 May 02 - 02:03 PM This is like a bad bream,some of the remarks are au-dace-ious. Must go now as I fancy a shad, followed by the piece of cod that passeth all understanding. Reservoir: do drop in any time.....Giok |
Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: SINSULL Date: 17 May 02 - 02:04 PM Mercury poisoning? Isn't that "Mad Hatter's' disease? OAR am I mistaken? I know - I am miserable at puns! |
Subject: RE: BS: fish problems From: Celtic Soul Date: 17 May 02 - 05:21 PM Squid it. Herring all this is really making me sick. You're gilling me here. FINish it already. This thread is floundering anyway. It's all a bunch if tripe, if you ask me. That last one really smelt in my opinion. I think we're all being a bit shellfish here. Many are just showing off their mussles. I have to tuna guitar now, so I'll catch you all on the net. |
