Anyone fancy buying a whale?

JONAH THE WHALE - FAIRGROUND ATTRACTION - ONE OF A KIND on eBay (end time 25-Sep-10 21:46:35 BST)

Came across this advert earlier on Ebay while looking for vintage fairground rides. Completely odd, doesnt quite say what it is.

FOR SALE
JONAH THE WHALE, 68 FEET LONG MOUNTED ON TRAILER, COMPLETE SHOW.
PRESERVED IN THE UNIVERSITY OF OSLO NORWAY.
ONLY ONE KNOWN IN THE WORLD.
REASON FOR SALE TO OLD TO TRAVEL
SORRY NO PICTURE AVAILABLE TO ARRANGE A VIEWING AND FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE CALL 07849073452
LOCATED IN ESSEX, NO TIME WASTERS, ONLY PEOPLE WILLING TO COME AND SEE IT PLEASE.
£40000

And that was it. Thought nothing more of it, but decided to google some more, and lo and behold found this obscure story.

BBC - Jonah the whale travels inland

SO it's not actually a fairground attractions, it's a 70 foot, 60 year old embalmed whale!!

You really can buy anything on Ebay!
