Mr Smow was away yesterday and had the car. He was sat at traffic lights with the car roof down. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a huge flock of seagulls on the left, coming across above him. He then heard this strange, fast 'popping' kind of sound, and before he knew it they'd cr@pped all over him- the car seats, his head, all over his clothes!! So he's sat there with roof down, covered in bird *** from head to toe, with the driver to his left trying very hard not to laugh.
I almost wet myself laughing when he told me!
Oh dear lol .... reminds me of a story, when I had a lucky escape when I was in my mid teens. I was sat on my pushbike leaning against a lamp post, chatting to mates. I don't know why I did (but I'm glad I did), but I decided to get off my bike and left it in the same spot and carried on chatting to my mates.
No more than 10 seconds later ..... SPLAT - a dollop of bird poo landed right on my bike seat .... lucky escape :)
Ahh, gulls by the sea, ok lol. Yes he said the sound was quite bizarre- almost as if they'd all said to each other "bombs away!!" And then they all let rip !! Lol
I nearly lost a finger to a Herring Gull in Teignmouth a couple of years ago - the barsteward was after my (expensive) ice-cream and got some skin&blood as sprinkles ...
I remember seeing one at seaside a few years ago who'd obviously pinched someone's hot dog. It's head was tilted back as a this very long sausage slid down his throat. It was quite bizarre to watch!
