#Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A couple of tourists(70s?) have gone off piste in a quiet tree-lined street at the edge of the city centre.
Unfolding a paper map.
Studying it intently before looking this way, then that way...
Which way to go?
AH!
Back where they came from!A tiny human (2?) in full princess regalia has been given a clean white hankie by Grandad.
Grandad's enjoying a cup of tea and a biscuit nearby.
Meanwhile Tiny Human Princess is ushering patrons in and out the door with a delicate hankie flutter.
The most polite princess in all the land.A small human (3?) is strutting along in a very eclectic outfit.
Small Human Fashion Statement is in a fluffy headband, an adult-sized plaid shirt, fairy pajama pants and too-big green gumboots*.
Strutting her stuff as much as the big boots allow.
What use is practicality?
This is FASHION.A seagull has spotted a promising lunch.
A foolish human has sat outside to eat salmon sushi.
Foolish Human is about to eat a bite then...
WHOOOSH!
Seagull swoops and snaffles the salmon in the blink of an eye.
Piratical Bird is VICTORIOUS.
Landing on a lamp post to eat its booty.In the open kitchen of a quiet burger joint, a dishwasher and a server (20s?) are waged in a magnificent lip sync war.
One first does Lady Gaga's Paparazzi.
The next does Jay-Z's 99 Problems.
A customer (60s?) applauding.
Chef shaking her hips, focussed on the job.
Lunch rush about to begin.(Continued Below)

Any typos spotted in this problem were looking forward to eating some salmon sushi for lunch. If typos spotted, they'll be giving a very quick and sneaky seagull the beady eye. That bird was QUICK.

Also, if you'd like to read over 600 of these posts, the typos have a rather fashionable Patreon. It's a seagull free zone. Your sushi is safe.
OR If you'd like to assist the typos in their mission to get out and about and spot things, they also have a rather nice Buy Me a Coffee. (Well... it should be Buy Me a Pot of Earl Grey Tea With Milk on the Side... but you get the idea!)

I am a people watching, author type beavering away to keep my ship of words afloat.

Thank you so much!
