Erin Punton, 22, from Northumberland, had a bizarre end to her night out after she woke up to find a seagull flying around her living room. The bird later tested positive for bird flu.
Ms Punton admitted she had no idea why she picked up the bird from outside a Wetherspoons pub, saying it happened without even a thought. She put the gull in her sitting room with a blanket.
The following morning, she was stunned to discover the bird flapping around her home. After taking it to a local vet, she was told it had tested positive for bird flu.

She said the news left her feeling 'sick', prompting her to disinfect her home thoroughly. A video showed her dancing to Valerie by The Zutons with the seagull tucked under her arm.
