Having A Whale of a Time

No sooner than you say London is scary and lonely and even desperate, then the city comes together to try to save a whale, seen swimming upstream in the capital.

Yes, no need to go to far flung places for whale watching holidays, just come to the heart of London and stand by the Thames and you too may see a whale.

Sadly, in spite of everyone being concerned to try to save the lost mammal - because let's face it, just how did it manage to swim so far off course ? - it may lose its fight for life. The whale is injured and clearly disorientated and according to Terry Nutkins (a man to be trusted, surely?) efforts to protect the whale from the River's traffic have probably done him or her more harm than good.

Some people are interested in the power of positive thinking or prayer when done en masse. So, spare a special thought for the whale today and let's hope he or she finds their way home.
