Parrot Fashion

Crikey! A lecturer from Thanet College is demanding a DNA test on a parrot. Pickle the parrot was kidnapped in January, but Sue Parsons reckons she's tracked her down to a pub in Margate, and now wants the test to prove she's hers. Asked how she knew it was Pickle, Sue said:

'The bird responded to me.' Uhuh, yeh, sometimes that happens, especially when alcohol's involved.

'I kissed her beak and she sucked my finger. I caressed her lots of times. I made one noise to her that I used to make and she repeated it immediately.' Um....

'I haven’t even been able to clean her cage out. I’ve left it exactly as it was.' Er... just give her the flippin' parrot back for gawd's sake! They're clearly very, er, close!

cyber mum , i am really sorry for your loss. my tortoise was stolen by community service types who was doing the old ladies garden next to mine. I just hope he is ok. Sometimes I think If i caught these people i would go mad and pull thier pants and trousers down to thier ankles and spank thier bums. seriously. They wouldn't look so hard then would they in front of thier mates with my tortoise poking its head out.
