    โ€œIt was amazing. We were paddling along when all of a sudden I heard this sound, like heavy breathing. I looked back,ย and was shocked to see a cute grey seal staring back at me.ย It was really friendly and tame โ€“ it swam right up to my board, and started playing with us. It nipped my paddle and then tried to climb onto my board โ€“ I had to go down on my knees because I didnโ€™t want the little critter toppling me in.
