Just watched a pigeon greedily guzzle down some spew near a bus stop on Oxford Road. Although it may only be the projectile from an unsettled donner kebab, it's still good to see those little peckers indulging in some fine nutrition. Maybe he or she will now have the energy to flap the rest of that green gob off its tatty wings, which will also be good news. Not as good as the consumption of human sick for the purpose of survival, but good nonetheless.
