A Couple Of Fairly Inconsequential Questions

I dreamed I was sitting in a pub listening to this nice young man going on about a wonderful girl he'd just met. Afterwards the girl's landlord, who was wearing a top hat, took the floor and told us that the girl might look 18 but was really 23 and actually a rather difficult character. When I woke up I worked hard at remembering all this- though now I can't think why. Is there a deeper meaning I'm not seeing?

The gulls aren't hanging around like they have been doing. I put out a dish of cat food that the cat has turned his nose up at and instead of the gulls swooping down and squabbling over it as they would have done a couple of weeks ago they've left it for the flies. Ailz and I have a theory that the gulls come inland for the breeding and nesting season and then head out back to sea. Is this actually the case?

Some species certainly do but that still doesn't explain the gulls we get here 60+ miles inland!
