Bandit country

I shall not speak of the optimised computer and the five re-starts it insisted upon whilst I was in the Gateshead office.

On my way back to the station I was reminded by their unmistakeable cries, that the kittiwakes were back on the Tyne Bridge - big time. Last week I saw the first ones, who'd secured the prime residential nesting sites on the north tower of the bridge. That's totally full up already and these guys are noisily sqabbling over the best spot on the other tower...the (whisper it) Gateshead side.
