Seagulls

[wendy]

They look rather majestic if you watch a solitary seagull flying swiftly through the air, very high up in the sky.
But when they get together it is a different matter.
Last night, they seemed to be having a party outside my house around 3pm flying round and round, swarking and swarking.
Do you get any problems with seagulls?

[annie]

No, Wendy we are 30 miles from the coast so don't see them here often

[maureenho]

We are about 25-30 miles from the coast and we get loads of them making a noise and sometimes they swoop down in the garden and pinch the food we put out for the little birds.

[wendy]

We are 30 miles from the sea and we get loads. I think they arrived when the MacDonalds came.

[maureenho]

We've always had seagulls over, even more so in the winter, my nanny use to say it must be cold down the coast when they came inland.

[wendy]

Where my daughter lives she is also about 30 miles from the coast and they get loads.
Lots of cities are plagued by them.

[Rosalind]

We get the odd one or two here but luckily are not troubled by them.

[annie]

We rarely see them

[Honey]

We don't see many here and they cause no problems.
But I still feel peeved when I remember a big fat seagull who pinched my poached salmon sandwitch years ago in Devon when on holiday.
I had just it put it down on a wall , turned around to get the flask of tea, and he swooped and scoffed it do877
