Stuck fermentation re-started after racking

Hi all, I brewed this chocolate stout (1.053 og) a couple of weeks back, fermentation took off like a rocket and lasted about 3 days. I checked the SG after 6 days and it was 1.025, way too high (target was 1.013). I let it sit and took it again every 3 days for 9 days, and it didn't change a tick. I decided to cut my losses and bottle it and drink it fast to avoid bottle bombs. I racked it into the bottling bucket to let it sit for a day and then i started getting airlock activity again. I know, I know, airlock bubbles dont necessarily indicate fermentation. Has anyone heard of fermentation resuming after being stuck then racked? Yeast is Nottingham btw.
Thanks all.

Yup, you roused the yeast some, might get it down a few more points.

I'm sure you expect this, but you have to take a gravity reading to be sure. It's probably just CO2 leaving solution because it's been agitated, but I guess it's possible that the yeast got active again after getting a little oxygen in their system.
