From his new blog:

Whales aren’t happy at the moment cos there’s too much noise in the sea which is a bit of a cheek when whales are actually the loudest animal on the World. Their noises can be heard for miles. When I had a free face rub a few years ago, the woman put a CD on of Whale noises. I asked her to turn it off cos it was annoying me. She told me it was one of the most beautiful relaxing noises on the planet. I said “I’m sure it is, if you’re swimming with them but a cd recording is just noise.” It’s like how I don’t mind the buzz from a fly if I’m sat in a field somewhere, but when a blue bottle is buzzing round the flat it does me head in. There’s a time and a place for everything. Plus the noise could be whales moaning for all we know. It always sounds more like a moan to me. I’m not a fan of classical music cos there’s no words so a whale warbling on with itself is never going to win me over.
