The lights are dimmed, the fire is blazing in the big old fireplace, your favourite tunes are on in the background, and I'm just about to pour you a big glass of red!!! Let's settle down on the big old leather sofa and have a chat!!
If you are going on a date, work or meeting and need to take a shower - don't do whole house waterchanges first (unless you either: a) are an eskimo, b) zebrapleco looking to get lucky or c) a masochist/insane)
