Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

Latest is they dont think it's going to make it.

Poor thing!! And you can bet the MOD won't give a toss if it transpires that it got disorientated cos of military activity in the North Sea!!!]:|

I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

And it's all over. Poor thing! But I'm glad everyone did as much as they could for it, and maybe it was the best thing, after all, it may well have died in open water if it hadnt died in the Thames.

Maybe having seen a whale in real life will now inspire more people to campaign against so called "scientific" whaling, the worst excuse for murder I've ever heard of!

The pod was sighted in Southend, then 3 swam up the to the Thames Barrrier at Woolwich, one passed through, the others turned back.

Poor gorgeous whale!:#(:#(:#(:#(:#(:#(

Perhaps it was trying to get to Wales!

Ya, I saw that too, that horriable, but like they said it had infected wounds, it was basically looking for a place to die...
