Ferguson wants Divers Banned !!


Following recent comments in the press from Mr Alex Ferguson, Manager of Manchester United about banning divers, FOTW would like to reassure its web readership that this does not include Scuba. FOTW are pressing Manchester United for a further statement from Mr. Ferguson to clarifiy his position.

Didier Drogba, Chelsea striker and a scuba diver himself refused to comment to FOTW on the recent remarks of Mr. Ferguson, other than to say that some of the pitches he has played on recntly have been quite slippy.

Fish from Fiji - Black Tipped Reef Shark at 'The Supermarket'












The final photograph in our Fiji showcase is a first for FOTW for a number of reasons. This excellent impressionist image is not only the first Black Tipped Reef Shark on FOTW but is the first FOTW photograph taken in a supermarket. Don't all rush you fishmongers out there. Photograph by FOTW friends Katy and Gareth once again.

WOW! - that's a big one .....

Not having had enough of big fish, stuff what with the whale a few weeks ago London is now home to the largest squid ever captured. You can find her at the Natural History museum in South Kensington and shes free to see.

We at FOTW say 'she' but a museum spokesman said thay couldn't categorically say she was a she .... but as there was no evidence of a penis they were sticking with female. The spokesperson went on to add that the penis of a male gaint squid is generally about 90cms in length.
