    Nothing sums up British spirit like a good scrap with a seagull over sausage and chips. They are VERY bold and will literally climb on you to get your food or grab it out of your hand as they fly past. I actually love it because it's funny and kind of cute that they're so brazen about it. For those who don't like it, we've really noone to blame but ourselves since they learned all this from us feeding them in the first place and birds are well known to pass down various behaviours across generations.

    The 'Level 5 Goose Warning' is part joke part real. It's written to amuse (we don't have a danger scale for birds) but I assume the station does have a problem with a vicious goose on the platform.

    The one that totally puzzled you about "I'm only seeing Clarkson May and Hammond here" is that the three people named in the photo look just like the team who presented TV programme Top Gear for years. That is really funny - if you know, you know!
    'Bill Payer'. If you enter TV competitions or draw or whatever by phone, they remind you that 'You must obtain the bill payer's permission' So some guy has messaged a random guy called 'Bill Payer' to ask permission to enter the comp.... Probably a set up rather than real- but still funny!

      Some interesting seagull info...
      It's not illegal to feed seagulls as they are not...nor ever have been...called vermin (by law) so if a council tells you, you can't feed them, they're lying! (Pigeons maybe, but not seagulls)
      Interesting fact...if you regularly feed a seagull in your garden, it will claim ownership of you, preventing you getting mobbed by loads of them. It may be a mob initially but once they've had a fight amongst themselves, and sorted out who's boss, that will be the only one who comes. They will come and see you every year and bring their partner and babies to see you if they have them.
      They do not encourage rats...by laying out food for them, as they won't leave any behind, whereas other birds might leave bread on the ground.
      Seagulls eat fish, obviously, but studies have shown, if you put down a fresh fish with latex gloves on, (latex gloves on you, not the fish!) and a cheese sandwich that you already ate half of, the seagull will generally opt for the food touched by humans before food that isnt, even if it's not what you'd think would be their first choice. That's why they like getting food from people rather than on the floor. They like humans.
      Seagulls can eat pretty much what humans do. Not necessarily saying a human diet is optimal...mainly because most humans don't eat an optimal diet for themselves, let alone seagulls! However, of all bird types, they survive pretty good on human food.
      I like seagulls. That bit wasn't part of the info... 😂

They usually work in groups, one will swoop in to distract the victims attention whilst another one sneaks in from the opposite direction to swipe the food, whilst the rest lurk around waiting to pounce on any food that gets dropped or spilled in the ensuing commotion. You can see them all sat on the rooftops of the nearby buildings, just watching and waiting for their chance.

They are Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, previously presenters on "Top Gear" which was the very best car show on tv filled with humour, adventures, experiments and car facts, til Jeremy was fired by the BBC and Richard & James walked out too in solidarity with Jeremy. They went in to make a similar show on Amazon Prime but that series has ended now and Jeremy now does shows on his farm named
    "Diddly Squat" or something like that - I've never watched it but heard it's a good show. Jeremy had trouble with his local council because he wanted to build and run a "farm shop" which he did, apparently, having had to include a car park and 'facilities' for his customers, so he must've complied with those requirements. He's shown here on TH-cam somewhere so perhaps you could check him out and maybe even treat us to a Reaction to Jeremy Clarkson on his farm? That's be interesting.🙂 (...Richard Hammond and James May do 'their own things' presenting etc, elsewhere).
