Anyone for Tapas?

A regular reader has been in touch to support my growing campaign - for taking the 'toughest action possible against seagulls' - TAPAS for short.

Because these horrible birds pose a real and present danger to lots of home carers - in some parts of Scotland - I'm told.

Which I never realised until now.

And this revelation also provides a topical and unexpected link to the ongoing fight for equal pay - in which Scotland's home carers feature so prominently.

The reader who got in touch with me (by e-mail) - says that home carers often have a nightmare of a time getting access to certain houses on their rounds - because of the dreaded seagull threat.

Apparently seagulls defend their rooftop nests on certain clients' homes - and launch their  Stuka-like attacks on dedicated carers (and no doubt others as well) - who are just trying to go about their duties.

So that's another nail in the birds' coffin.

What a headline - helpless old folks trapped in their homes - while aggressive gulls terrorise their only link to the outside world - what are heartless councils doing to protect the clients and their low paid staff?

I never realised things had turned so ugly - and so bad out there.

So all the more reason to turn TAPAS into a national - all Scotland - campaign.

Now if only seagulls made good eating - we could turn them into a Tapas menu item as well.
