    I knew that, but I was updating that it had died. Having just checked the other thread, yes you are quite right, I need not have made this one.

    I was reading the BBC website and people were complaining with things like 'Well there are starving kids in Africa blah blah'. But I dont think we should feel guilty about celebrating the good or interesting things that happen. I liked this news story because it was different. Just a shame it had a sad ending but great that the volunteers worked so hard to save the whale.

    Mind you, when a whale gets that lost there is likely to be a problem with it, they don't tend to get lost unless they are ill I think.

    You may have left us, but not our hearts.

    Ok, I admit, that was a bit cheesy. :p

    I wonder if they will figure out what actually happened to it.

    Yeah, but why? Maybe poisoning from the waters.

    I'm sure it's gone to a better place.


    Here, perhaps?

    Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    yes because they swim around with a map book between their flippers (or whatever they have!). whales do not own maps. end of.

    It probably died of a drugs overdose.

    what the fuck? the water that is in the thames is the water that's outside of the thames, surely.

    I thought it was polluted... So why did it die then?

    hang on.

    let me just run down to the thames, open up the whale, get my whale book out and then i'll get back to you on that one.

    I had already updated the other thread about the death of the whale.

    Although it is quite sad and stuff I do think the public has gone a bit doolally over this whole thing. But hey ho, that's my opinion.
