I thought of that m'lady but I think that is a swordfish - are you trying to send me up a wrang dreel?
Not at all...I wouldn't do that...well, not often anyway.
My dictionary said it was a cetacean. When I looked up cetacean, it said that genus included whales.
:-))

my dictionary has it as Xiphias but no mention of whales - just swordfish
I believe the whale DOES come under the genus of Xiphius.

It's not in my dictionary but my (so called) friend says it's Ziphius - he let me down badly earlier today
Perhaps he has redeemed himself over the Brechin incident.....

The Brechin Incident - sounds like a great name for a thriller!!
