A well spotted news item. This in fact is an unlicensed live-aboard who is running upstream under cover and will not reveal itself until it reaches Tescos in Reading.

Does look like dolphins, they do venture up occasionally to do a bit of sightseeing.

Does anyone seriously think that the situation in Scotland is so dire that Nessie would decide to emigrate to England ?

I do not believe that these creatures are real and exist again!

Perhaps he's running out of grub and heard there was a good feast of snails to be had at Moulsford

Do they do Escargot at the Beetle? It's so long since I've eaten there even though it's only across the River from me.

No idea, never eaten there...perhaps I'll fix that in August

Seem to recall reading that Chris_d keeps some on the bottom of his boat

No! You got that wrong, Chris has snails on his bottom.

Chris has snails on his bottom.

I guess he prefers that to a growth :disgust:
