    It’s not rare to have family or friends living overseas if you’re a South African. I can name at least five acquaintances of my own in the U.K. alone.

    But when they’re not stealing our accountants, they make for some pretty decent chat in the pub (pronounced poob), especially when a dolphin pops up in the River Thames.

    The much-loved National Geographic educates us on the fact:

    Harbor porpoises are shy, elusive sea mammals whose numbers are declining primarily because they are frequently caught by accident in commercial fishing nets.

    Fok. I’m probably not the only one that this pisses off, but before I lose my sh*t, here’s the video:

    Here’s some more on the porpoises:

    Harbor porpoises are found throughout the temperate coastal waters of the Northern Hemisphere. As their name suggests, they prefer the shallows, less than 500 feet deep, and are commonly seen in harbors and bays. They are also known to frequent inland waters, including rivers, estuaries, and tidal channels.

    So it might not be that rare after all? Good enough excuse to have a pint over, though.
