Who Loves The Seagulls At Fishguard Bay Hotel?

A front room gives you a view of the bay and a seagull. Not a private seagull. The seagull is shared. It visits all the windows.

"Well, I must be off now, since you are not doing anything for me except taking photos.  The woman by the window at the other end usually saves me bread or sausages from breakfast. But I'll be back. Live in hope."

Visitors love the seagulls. Locals are fed up with them, the seagulls, not the visitors. Hoteliers want more visitors and fewer seagulls.

The hotel tells you to keep the windows shut. 

Gerry, who runs Writers' Holiday in February, is warm and friendly, like his son, Richard, and wife Anne, and all the family, but Gerry tells it like it is. He says, "Birds are a nuisance. One got in here once, and we were chasing it all around, weren't we, Richard? They make mess which somebody has to clean up. You aren't feeding them, are you, Angela?"

I protest, "No, no, no. Not me!"
