:03:34. > :03:38.great Yarmouth for ten months but today is making the long journey
:03:39. > :03:41.home. They're not too difficult to move, the worst thing is getting

:04:08. > :04:15.ready for the drive back on to the aquarium. We have popped him back
:04:16. > :04:19.in, he is settling in straightaway. A lot of the decoration of the
:04:20. > :04:26.inside looks the same so I think he's back into his old home which is
:04:27. > :04:30.nice for him. He was the first this morning, we have more creatures
