What would you do for chips?
A feisty seagull was so keen to get some McDonald's fries on Sunday, he stood on the back of his fellow seafaring chip-chaser, Napier man Ben Harman said.
"They were after chips that some guys were throwing to them," he said of Sunday's unusual sighting in the McDonald's car park.
He and his father Stan had taken four-year-old son grandson and son Jack out for a drive, and a snack, as he had been a bit unsettled earlier.
Little Jack's unsettled mood soon turned into a mood of delight, and along with his dad and granddad, puzzlement.
