As for fishnets, can't say I ever knew anyone whe wore them, not sure that I'd want to either. And I especially hate the fishnets that are slowly but surely driving our fish populations to the brink of extinction.<br /><br />And thanks for the breathing inspiration. I'm hoping things will calm down a bit soon. For now, I'll just breathe in..... hold.... breathe out....<br />:-)Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855510751016957422.post-54103853223079792432010-08-02T04:54:02.630+02:002010-08-02T04:54:02.630+02:00Hi James, well, as Jill pointed out above, it isn&...Hi James, well, as Jill pointed out above, it isn't even bamboo...<br /><br />============================<br /><br />Hi Clytie, looks like there are some mixed feelings out there about the fishnets... but if you like the bottles, there's that at least on the good side...<br />:-)Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855510751016957422.post-27921140609137113152010-08-02T04:51:51.028+02:002010-08-02T04:51:51.028+02:00Myth, good idea !
