Grrrrr writing Poor Paul, has made me think of that annoying brat that wanted to poo at Pauls house 

I liked Paul 

'Cause he was called Paul.

He seemed nice. 

He was a ripe old age for an octopus and if he'd lived much longer and was troubled with arthritic knees he was in bother, so look on the bright side Cinds  

He was all arms 

aww poor Paul    




*wonder if he saw that coming*

Has he been given a proper burial, or was he sold to the local seafood restaurant?

awww *sad*

I hope they bury him 

I think they're legs  

If not I'll change the arthritic knees to tennis elbows 

 I just realised my post looked like I was debating whether they are arms or legs.

I just meant 'he was all arms' as in a bit of a groper .  (to be honest I think I would have liked to have met him)

was he old then or was it an illness ? Poor wee octopus

me too 

Dame I might have had to put anything other than the England flag on my box in order to get him to rake around in there for a mussel 

LMAO  

Poor old Paul - this is a link to the BBC article

There is a 5 minute news clip there (can't post the clip here), but it looks likely that Paul will be buried in the zoo grounds. He may have been 3 to 3 and a half, compared to the usual 2 years, and seems to have been in good health until the end. Apparently the zoo knew what Paul would not be around much longer and have been rearing his replacement (also to be called Paul) elsewhere.

RIP

Octopus's rule.     *chucks twigs*
