Re: we saw a seal.

Yep ...

There is the worlds fattest one that lives by Billingsgate fish market , on the foreshore ..

The fishmongers feed it each day with leftovers and it has come to know them and stays there.

Apparently the PLA had to come and talk to the fishmongers and ask them to not feed it quite so much as it was getting so big it couldn't move .

We get them up as far as Teddington occasionally .
