Carnage

Just when you think things can’t possibly get any worse…  Following a second Prymnesium outbreak on the River Thurne last week, there’s been a third on Horsey Mere over the weekend.  I took the boat out at the weekend and saw hundreds of dead fish on the Mere.  The river was even worse, I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

The first picture below is the BA's "Island recreation scheme" three years on.  Is this a success? Make up your own mind.  








 Most of these photos were taken on the river and are typical of what we saw on both banks along a stretch of about 1 1/2 miles.


If you look closely you'll see a few dead fish laying beside the sign.  Sickeningly ironic...
