Oh all right, I'll tell you.
An Owl. 3 miles out at sea, off Hartlepool. Defo an owl cos my mate who was with us is a bit of an ornithologist said it was & 3 others all said together, '**** me, thats an owl'

Anyway, sorry it wasn't more exciting but I didn't expect so many replies.

[i]No iDave, now I know he didn't die at sea I can spend the weekend hoping his brakes fail[/i]

I'll let you know about that. I hope you rabbit dies & you can't sell the hutch.

An owl? After all that? I was moderately surprised the first time I saw one at work (about 50km from the nearest land). But then it did buzz me, talons out when I stepped out of the control room...

Was it Athelstan the seal?

Last seen by myself and a naked woman in the River Thames in 2007 opposite the O2 Arena. Sad to say the love between the naked woman and I died sometime ago, but I'm really chuffed to hear that Athelstan is alive and well.

If you did see an antelope, tell him that if he marries in haste, he can repent at leisure. Though an invite would have been nice.

An owl on it's way to Hogwarts

The owl I saw on the rig looked kinda like Headwig, but it was obviouslly lost or just taking a vacation.
