  • Summary

  • Did one man’s friendship with a dolphin go way – way – too far? It’s 1987 and the British seaside town of Amble has seen much better days. So when a wild bottlenose dolphin nicknamed Freddie appears in the harbour, it feels like a miracle. Everyone wants to swim with him. But Freddie chooses one person above all others: Alan Cooper, a dedicated animal rights activist committed to freeing captive dolphins. Then Alan’s friendship with Freddie is turned against him and a devastating accusation spirals out of control.

Had me Hooked

Oh Man, It’s a wild life 😬🐬

My partner asks me why I have lines between my eyebrows… I thought it’s because of my glasses situation then I realised I listen to this type of thing and have a permanent pensive and confused frown.

I’m sorry “Freddie” ended up in Amble maybe he also wanted to test his eyesight looking at castles.

Let Freddie look at castles and erect his antenna dangit

Real name probably more like Krukkruuuurrk but humans do like to human, and sexualise.
Ewww
