As I was wandering around Oxford, I suddenly heard some seagulls. This was pretty unusual as Oxford is about as far from the coast as you can get in the UK.
Now seagulls are just about the most raucous and unmusical birds in existence (not to mention greedy, messy and bloody aggressive if they think they can get away with it), but I heard them a lot when I was growing up in Devon and all of a sudden I felt very homesick.
Strange really, I aint lived in Devon for about 10 years now, but all it takes is a few birds and I feel like I just left.
