Small farms in the U.K. are struggling. In an attempt to diversify, some farmers have turned their land into golf courses or tried their hand at raising ostrich and llama. Many of these new ventures fail through lack of experience or short-lived fads. Currently, fish farms are booming, especially in Scotland. Peter's farmer, who looks suspiciously like a certain master carver, has replaced his sheep with fish, with disastrous results. Featured in "Troubled Waters" are salmon, carp, tilapia, and catfish – types of fish that are being farmed. And all are dead. The farmer is confounded; his faithful sheepdog looks on in pity. Inscribed on the lid is a plug for Peter's new blogsite. The interior portrays one of the hazards of fish farming that is thankfully absent in Scotland – alligators.

Although Harmony Kingdom is still manufactured at Wimberley Mills near Stroud in Gloucestershire, since Martin Perry, the founder retired in August 2005, marketing and shipping of the pieces is done from the USA office at Harmony Ball Company in Ohio. This means that we have to consolidate our orders before having them shipped to us. We are currently taking deliveries about every 6 weeks and so there may be a delay with your order if the piece is not already in stock. We will advise by email. Hope this doesn't cause a problem.
