SOQL - Attachments Parent ID not coming through

Hi

When I run a query on attachments to pull their parent id, it works fine for eg Accounts:

Select id, parent.id from Attachment
where parent.type = 'Account'

However for Tasks I get only a 'null parent' return:

select id, parent.id from attachment
where parent.type = 'Task'

Does anyone have the answer to this or a workaround?

Cheers, 

Andy
