So if I stare at the seagulls they won't crap on my car then? my mate shoots seagulls  and magpies then hangs one from a tree in his garden that stops them as well !! no university degree required !!  :)

We wouldn't be allowed to do that here Notty, we'd be fined at the very least then hounded on social media.

The local brewery in Cardiff is next to the river and has a license to shoot seagulls as they shite all over the barrels  :)

Lucky buggers!   I wonder how far they can range in the pursuit of removing them? 50 mile radius sounds fair  :whistling: :happy1:
