I thought girl straight away!

I think girl too!

According to nub theory if the nub (the line circled) runs parallel to the spine then it is a girl. If the nub points up at an angle it's a boy.

Boy as the nub is forked

@blakeway45 a forked nub doesn't necessarily mean a boy.

"All nubs will image as a fork. This fork is split into two parts. The bottom half, also known as the urogenital folds will develop into the labia minora, and the top half known as the genital tubercle will develop into the clitoris. By 11 weeks of gestation, the clitoris is prominent and the lateral boundaries of the urogenital sulcus have separated. For male fetus the genital tubercle will develop into the glans of the penis, the urogenital fold becomes the shaft and the labioscrotal fold matures into the scrotum."

Also @rubyru95 the nub theory website shows a girl ultrasound and it looks just like yours with the long nub.
