Woman drunkenly rescues seagull stuck at bus stop
"I was pretty drunk and I hate birds."

A woman drunkenly rescued a seagull on a night out - after the bird got stuck at a bus stop.
Good Samaritan Sinead Murphy, 21, managed to wing it and free the entangled bird in the early hours of the morning on June 15.
The mom-of-one spotted the trapped gull while on the way home from a night out in Torquay, Devon, at 3 a.m.
It had its leg stuck between the bus stop's metal panels and was unable to escape - so Sinead leaped into action and used her hands to free it before it flew off.
Sinead, a full-time mom, said: "I just walked past it but then saw it out of the corner of my eye.
"I was pretty drunk, and I hate birds, so I was probably the worst person to be dealing with it at the time.
"I tried to help it, I'm glad I got there in the end!"
Sinead said she rarely goes out.
She added: "It's quite funny the one time I go out this happens, I'm glad I could help it - even in such an amusing way."
