  This manual will teach you how to choose a site for your garden fish pond; how to stock it, and how to maintain it, so that your fish lead happy lives. 
  You may also use the articles in your own publication. 
  I hope that you will find the contents helpful, useful and profitable. 
  In this ultra stressful world, means of relaxation and a must. One of the best of these, if you have the space is a garden fish pond. An alternative could be a fish tank in the house.  
  I have had both. I often found myself watching the fish in my tank rather than the television in the corner, but a fish pond is more realistic and makes a fantastic focus of attention. Outdoor fish are also more likely to breed, as they will be local. A garden fish pond also takes less maintenance than a tank. 
  This manual will teach you how to choose a site for your pond; how to stock it, and how to maintain it so that your fish lead happy lives. 
  The information in this ebook on various aspects of keeping fish is organised into 17 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
  You may also use the articles in your own publication.

  London Feeds Itself

  London is often called the best place in the world to eat – a city where a new landmark restaurant opens each day, where vertiginous towers, sprawling food halls and central neighbourhoods contain the cuisines of every country in the world. Yet, this London is not where Londoners usually eat. There is another version of London that exists in its marginal spaces, where food culture flourishes in parks and allotments, in warehouses and industrial estates, along rivers and A-roads, in baths and in libraries. A city where Londoners eat, sell, produce and distribute food every day without fanfare, where its food culture weaves in and out of daily urban existence.
  
  
  In a city of rising rents, of gentrification, and displacement, this new and updated edition of London Feeds Itself, edited by the food writer and editor of Vittles, Jonathan Nunn, shows that the true centres of London food culture can be found in ever more creative uses of space, eked out by the people who make up the city. Its chapters explore the charged intersections between food and modern London's varied urban conditions, from markets and railway arches to places of worship to community centres. 26 essays about 26 different buildings, structures and public amenities in which London's vernacular food culture can be found, seen through the eyes of writers, architects, journalists and politicians – all accompanied by over 125 guides to some of the city's best vernacular restaurants across all 33 London boroughs.

  Casablanca - The Ultimate Trivia...

  CASABLANCA 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Casablanca, a 1942 American romantic drama, directed by Michael Curtiz, stars Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid. It's set during World War II, in Casablanca, where an American expatriate must choose between his love for a woman and helping her husband, a Czech resistance leader. The screenplay is based on an unproduced play called Everybody Comes to Rick's. The film's themes include love, sacrifice, and moral dilemmas. The movie is known for its memorable lines, iconic characters, and pervasive theme song, "As Time Goes By". It won three Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. It is often ranked among the greatest films in history. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  The screenplay for Casablanca was based on an unproduced play called Everybody Comes to Rick's, and the film rights were purchased for $20,000, the most anyone in Hollywood had ever paid for an unproduced play at that time. The project was then renamed Casablanca, apparently in imitation of the 1938 hit Algiers. 
    
  Despite being an A-list film with established stars, no one involved with Casablanca's production expected it to be anything special among the many pictures produced by Hollywood yearly. It was rushed into release to capitalize on publicity from the Allied invasion of North Africa. 
    
  The film's cast was notably international, with only three of the credited actors being born in the United States: Humphrey Bogart, Dooley Wilson, and Joy Page. Many of the actors were European exiles and refugees, who brought a sense of "understanding and desperation" to their roles.
