Name the Solent Dolphin
Has anyone thought of a name for the Solent Dolphin?
He/she is very beautiful and spent a long time playing near Merlin before falling for nearby Pompey jetskier Alan's ski. (Will post shots during the week).
There's a dolphin in Kerry called Fungie.
We have to think of a name for the Solent pet.
Any ideas?

I just like Trevor.
As for coming up close to Merlin, maybe it thought it was old skanky fishing boat and they were on the scav?
