I've a friend lives in Switzerland, in Geneva. So there's no fresh water for-- well no seas for fish so they have fish in the-- the lake um and my mother was there and we had this fish and chips in this nice lake side place. And eh, when the plateful arrived they were all little fish, various size of little fish, and my mother said "They're goldfish."
