All this pier pressure to find a gullfriend!

Audition day for the much-awaited remake of "The Birds"

Where's the fish an' chips then ??

I was wondering when the chip might show up
As an aside, do those of you living in your strange downsideup hemisphere use the term "like a seagull on a chip" to refer to a particularly frenzied activity? Or is that just us??

Hehehe !!

Nope.

As becomes our perfectly staid and proper upright manner, we in this part of the world don’t commonly use that particular term.

At least I have never heard of it 😝

Local Santa Monica Pier Committee meeting in progress.
Minutes will reflect: 'More fries, less humans!

Repeat after me, we are hungry.

"Two and a half hours to set up this shot, and at the last moment some clown has to stare at the camera"

The Seasalt Chorale, led by Gulnerd Ternstein, moments before starting their delightfully cacophonic Gullaluja Chorus by Shored Fishstick Hangle.

Love these
Still time for some more!

What ?? Not loud enough for you ?? Well, we can soon sort that !! 🤭

The leader was furious and shouting "Come on you Squabble! I’ve seen sandwiches with more discipline than you!

Is this what Tinder meant when it said this is where I would meet a gull friend

Apologies for the delay.
I have changed my mind more than once but in the end I kept coming back to the punnyness of LadyKs contribution.
I will now of course think of Gullaluja every time I hear Leonard’s epic song.
Congrats LadyKestrel

Congratulations to LadyKestrel on her 71st trophy!

Nice one LK.

Incredibly punny, Lady K!

Very clever, LadyKestrel!

Thank you, Flotsam and everyone!

I do hope you lose the earworm right away, Flotsam, both for Cohen and Handel.

Just Great, LadyKestrel !!

Another worthy winner, LadyK!

Congratulations LadyK ... most excellent indeed!
