You couldn't be more wrong, the phrase "north of Watford" is nothing to do with Watford, Hertfordshire, but Watford a small village in Northamptonshire, not so coincidently close to the Watford Gap services on the M1, and the full phrase is "North of the Watford Gap" as the M1 passes through a fairly small depression between two hills.

Some saddos here getting a thrill from some poor creatures misfortune.
The type of w@nkers who stop to take pictures of fatal road accidents and stuff.
Why couldn't the whales have exploded when the knobheads were taking their "selfies"!

I noticed this on the news too, there seems to be an awful lot of blood for something that's just beached?

It's not a picture I would want to take or have in My Pictures, but it is just a dead whale, isn't it. I have a picture of me, aged nine, holding up a bass that I caught and killed on a creek in Cornwall. Am I sick and evil?

Well, finding a dead animal on a beach, I suppose. Is there an agenda that we, as humans, are all collectively to blame for it's demise because we are all planet rapists? If it was a beautiful dead moth that died of natural causes (and for all we know, so did the whales), would we be that fussed?
BTW, I'm sad that they died. I didn't like some idiot spraying a CND tag on its fluke either.

The north-south divide is Watford, Northamptonshire, more precisely Watford Gap:

I woke up this morning to the news of three sperm wales being washed ashore up north
I wonder whats gone wrong for these amazing creatures to have this happen ?
Perhaps they are trying to claim asylum ?
