There's a whale swimming up the Thames....

Okay, they need to get the poor thing back out into open water, but I can't help but find it funny.

I hope the poor thing is alright.

The Thames is not the cleanest of rivers, from what I have heard.

And every time I hear about the Thames, I'm reminded of a story my brother brought back from his honeymoon in England and Scotland. Sitting on the plane, there was a very American woman talking with her very American husband, saying how they wanted to see the "Thay-mees" river. *wince*

No, it's not a very clean river...you'd think the stuff coming out of the barrage would have been enough to disuade it from getting so far in it couldn't turn around...

Oh good grief... and I felt daft enough accidentally mispronouncing Bothell 'Bow-full' about six years ago....
