Whale - wow!


Have you seen the whale in the River Thames - just by the Houses of Parliament?

It's 17ft long - a pilot whale, they think
You'll find it on a rolling news channel or there's a web-cam pic on the bbc site.
Will it be OK? - Shouldn't it be back out in the sea?

Re: Whale - wow!


Was watching it a moment ago. Looks like they have a plan in place to get it back to the sea.
They were saying there are reports of one in another river and there going to check it out. Cant remember what river it was.
