Mum gives goldfish kiss-of-life

A mother has revived a goldfish with the kiss-of-life after it was found in a dried-up stream.

Maria Venghaus's young sons found the lifeless fish in the muddy stream near their home in Swindon, Wiltshire, and rescued it.

Mum Maria, 30, sprang into action and blew hard into its mouth and then dropped it into a tank of water when he revived.

Maria told the Daily Record: "I used to win fish from fairs when I was younger. My grandad taught me how to blow into their mouths when they are weak and it usually did the trick."

The new fish - named Boris - is now enjoying life with the family's 16 other goldfish.
