Been a while since I did one of these, but this news is fantastic:
Too many fish in the K&A Canal
Fish have become established enough to become a problem? Not so long ago the waterways in this section of the country were in a state of abandonment/disrepair, or heavily polluted - fish and other wildlife died, nasty weeds took over. People have worked (and are working) hard to re-establish the canal system, and it has been successful! I'm so pleased.

Quick, unrelated ETA: New (final?) series of 'Shameless' starts 10pm C4 tonight...
