    Goldfish's recovery going 'swimmingly' after operation

    A vet in the Republic of Ireland has saved the life of a "starving" goldfish after carrying out a rare operation to remove a suspected tumour from his face.

    Merlin, who is 17-years-old, developed the growth under his left eye and it had become "so large it was preventing him from eating".

    Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like infowars, selfhosted and groups. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was pondering.

    But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!
