paulf 820 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I sperm. Wale got hit by a container ship and got stuck on the bulbous bow and ended up in are dock my mate got the job of carring it on his low loader. The stench of rotting whale is. Like nothing on earth. Ive cut up dolphins , seals porpoise but this whale was some thing else , my old man went to sea from a lad he told me the whaling men were not allowed in the pubs on the dock road except for one witch still has a whaler statue on top of it. Whalers could be away for up to two years at a time Get moby dick on. Ibooks the narration is brilliant. . there was a fin whale washed up right on the foreshore where i work a few years ago and it was taken to the farm i work on and cut up and your right it stinks lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
