Woman's horror as pesky seagull pinches Sensodyne toothpaste from her bathroom

'I had a cheap tube of Lidl toothpaste, but instead it stuck its head in and pinched the full tube of Sensodyne'

A woman from Exmouth has been left gobsmacked after a seagull pinched a full tube of toothpaste from her bathroom.

Anna Ravenscroft-Ward, 45, says she was downstairs when the theft took place yesterday (February 9), but was quickly alerted to the incident by her neighbour who was an eyewitness.

Anna says it's not the first time this taunting seagull has visited her house.

She said: ''It uses its beak to tap on our windows everyday when we are eating.

''I had a cheap tube of Lidl toothpaste, but instead it stuck its head in and pinched the full tube of Sensodyne.''

Anna - who finds the incident amusing - says she is quite sure it is the same seagull who visits the house daily.

''It taps on our conservatory first and then works his way around the house tapping on all of the windows.

''The other day he started tapping on the kitchen window and then tried another window.

''Shortly after I went upstairs and I could hear tapping - he was trying to get in through the bathroom.''

Following yesterday's 'toothpaste gate', Anna said it was her neighbour who spotted the gull sticking its head through the window before flying off with the Sensodyne tube.

She said: ''My neighbour messaged me and told me. I ran upstairs and the toothpaste was gone.

Although she lost a whole tube of Sensodyne, Anna finds the incident amusing (Image: Anna Ravenscroft-Ward) ''I did feel a bit bad for the seagull, I guess they aren't able to feed on as many scraps due to lockdown. They are so cheeky.

''It was a full tube!''

Jokingly Anna said: ''We've called him Steven Seagal - although that's a bit of an old joke.''

After the incident, Anna took to social media to share what had happened.

She said: ''It seemed to get a great reaction and cheer people up especially in these strange times.

''I just hope it has put a smile on everyone's face.

''People should be on the lookout as it [the toothpaste] will probably turn up in someone's garden somewhere!''

I hate seagulls. When I was at Sea World 30 years ago a seagull took my hot dog right as I was just ready to make the first bite within an inch of my mouth. Everyone thought it was funny but me.

Looks a bit like the actress Anna Friel. Shame about the tats and piercings.

Living the good life on a island ......dinner guest brought us the thickest, most juicy looking sirloin your carnivore mind could imagine, to grill for dinner.

Grill fire was started; embers were just perfect; steak put on the grill; we were sitting on the porch, watching the boats go by, reveling in the afternoon; out of *no where* a seagull lands on the grill grate, to take the red meat.

You could see the look of horror on its face as both feet were fried.

Ya know i HATE tats on lovely women and more so on unattractive women that make them even MORE unattractive.

But i dunno here.
In this case looking at those few pics and the yoga thing she looks to be a true wicked sweet looking down to earth girl with her tattoo’s and all.
A rare case where i give a tatt’d chick a thumbs up on the limited info provided here.

I would love to meet this one in a bar
:)

I’ll bet it was the crows...they act as clans. Gulls act more individually and don’t care what other birds are around.

Yeah, sure... I say the neighbor did it.

I don’t like the tattoos, but she’s definitely a good looking woman. I’m sure most guys would agree.

Ok, here it is. The face is cute, that’s it. The numerous tattoos indicate a person with terrible decision making ability, and immediately calls into question personal hygiene. The laughably idiotic LOVE WINS hippy tee shirt is something a typically brain dead leftist would wear, a vapid, mind numbing virtue signalling slogan. And then, she makes sure to point out she uses Sensodyne toothpaste, because she wants us all to know exactly what brand she uses, because that means something in the modern virtue signalling world of today.

A skank and a dumb broad!
