Methadras said...: Where are these killer shrimp from? What do they want from UK shrimp? Why are they killing them? Is there some social shrimp justice involved here? Are the UK shrimp not tolerant enough to accept the new incoming killer shrimp?; 9/15/10, 12:57 PM
Unknown said...: We shall fight them on the landing beaches, we shall fight them on the skewers, we shall fight them in the Scampi.

We shall never give up!

AST said...: Thank you for this link. I've been casting around for a theme for my novel and I think this might be it.

We've got a surplus of Chinese carp in the Mississippi river system. Wouldn't it be great if they liked eating these 'jumbo' shrimp?; 9/15/10, 7:33 PM
