The seagull plague I mentioned last month seems to be getting worse. Firstly last week they were dive-bombing anybody who stepped out into my garden. It turned out that a seagull chick was in the neighbour’s garden and they were just trying to protect it, they’re vicious little bastards though!

The seagull’s have now rescued their baby or left it to die and left my garden area. I thought the gulls had dispersed like in The Birds movie until I read this story on the BBC Website.

Seagulls have taken to attacking postmen attempting to deliver mail in one Somerset street – so female posties have taken over their rounds.

A postman fell off his bike after he was attacked by the gulls as he tried to make his deliveries in Highbridge.

And when a manager went to investigate, he too was knocked to the ground by the birds, believed to be nesting nearby.

But when a woman postie was sent, she escaped unscathed. Female staff are now filling in for their male counterparts.

I don’t know the reason why the gulls just go after male postmen. One theory is that women are sometimes referred to as “birds” or “chicks”, maybe the gulls know this and therefore, thinking the female posties are there own kind let them be.

Watch out Pat…. they’re gonna get ya!

Another theory is that the gulls may be after the men’s manhood, sensing a large worm-like organ beneath the navy Royal Mail trousers it may be mistaken for food – i.e. a worm.

Who knows but it would be interesting to place somebody like Nadia from Big Brother 5 who has had a sex change and see what happens.

One final theory of mine is that the seagulls are not a problem at all and that it is just an excuse thought up by Royal Mail officials to explain a poor quality of service. Although for legal reasons I must state the residents of the Somerset street in question may be very happy with their service…. unlike me with mine where my post arrives mid afternoon.
