I know I should fight this low-level attempt at behavioural control but are talking about Fish, the ex-lead singer out of the never-popular Marillion, Fish, the so-so drama series with Paul McGann, or fish, as in Eric B's favourite dish in Paid In Full?

"never popular"? You don't read the Lee and Herring guestbook, do you?

Whiting

Jon - had a look at the L&H guestbook, couldn't find any mention of Marillion - what's the story?

whiting

(species Gadus, or Merlangius, merlangus), common marine food fish of the cod family, Gadidae. The whiting is found in European waters and is especially abundant in the North Sea. It is carnivorous and feeds on invertebrates and small fishes. It has three dorsal and two anal fins and a chin barbel that, if present, is very small. Its maximum length is about 70 cm (28 inches), and its colour is silvery with a distinctive black blotch near the base of each pectoral fin. Several species of the drum, or croaker, family (Sciaenidae) are also called whiting, among them the northern kingfish (Menticirrhus saxatilis).

Actually, that is pretty great.

I should have known that, living in a fishing town. shame on me.

I have to say I'm rather pleased at having managed to make such a long thread out of crap. I must try it again some time.

I kind of liked this thread - it had a laid-back, rambling feel...
