    It's popped up in a fair few places over the last month or so - presume its the same one.

    Wouldn't fancy a 50/50 with it!

    He's got a good pair of gnashers !!
    Bet he's drawing the crowds in today. Apparently the police are there guarding him.

    I was in Seahouses when Freya the walrus turned up. Hope this one doesn’t meet the same fate as Freya. It worked it’s way up to Norway and because people wouldn’t keep away they shot it.

    Scarborough New Year’s fireworks display has been cancelled.
    It won’t stop pillocks setting them off though, I’ll bet. :rolleyes:

    It’s an odd one about the fireworks. Surely if he got scared by bangs and flashes he’d just flop back into the sea and off he’d go.

    I suspect it’s not quite as simple as that. He needs to leave of his own accord.
