I wonder how much medication passes through the body to come out in

Probably quite a lot! There have been articles on how much effect the
female contraceptive pill has on fish!

So it is not over fishing that has seriously depleted fish stocks )

Freshwater fish, no. And pollution is definitely a serious factor,
especially in places like the North and Irish Seas.

Yes. Titanium ??oxide from a paint works in Immingham and all the crap
that is flushed into the Rhine are big polluters

This year the traditional Dutch "new haring" are being imported from the
north Of Norway. AFAIR last year they came from Denmark.

Any articles about the effect of Viagra on climbing plants?

We have a honeysuckle that has grown a metre vertically unsupported in
the last 8 weeks.

It clearly needs Viagra - it should have done more!

I should have been clearer. It climbed two metres to top of a Lidl
tubular arch frame before growing vertically another metre.
