  This subject comes up from time to time and whilst throwing a load of bread in Pencester Gardens or Market Square is clearly wrong I don't see a problem with instances like this.

  Yes, no harm in these one-off cases, helping a seagull in distress, but I am against feeding the gulls in principle.
