A grandad says angry 'snowflake' seaside locals demanded he never returns to the beach after admitting he tried to kick seagulls for stealing his ice cream. Peter Lloyd was on a day out at the seaside in Llandudno, Wales, with wife Rita Lloyd, 61, and seven-month-old grandson Stanley when he treated them to a double rum and raisin and toffee-flavoured ice cream.
The 58-year-old admits the shop assistant warned them to watch out for seagulls, but as soon as he took his first lick outside the shop a large seagull swooped down and snatched the £3.90 cone straight out of his hand. The factory worker says he charged after the bird while attempting to 'give it a kick' but it got away and sat down on the opposite side of the road tucking into his treat.
Dad-of-three Peter watched as the bird and its pals gobbled it down in front of him - leaving housewife Rita in stitches. It was only when they got home later that Peter realised in a bizarre case of life imitating art, he had been wearing a pink t-shirt featuring a seagull swiping someone's ice cream - emblazoned with the phrase 'the seagull has landed'.
