My favourite story this week:
Macaw teaches his friends to swear
NUNEATON
A foul-mouthed parrot has taught two other birds to swear, to the annoyance of the owner of a wildlife sanctuary. Barney, a seven-year-old macaw, left, has been swearing so often in front of a pair of African greys, Sam and Charlie, that they have picked up his language. Geoff Grewcock, owner of the Warwickshire Wildlife Sanctuary, said: “They just sit there swearing at each other now. It sounds like a builders’ yard. These birds can live until they are 70 so there are potentially another 60 years of this to contend with.” In 2005 Barney was placed in solitary confinement after he told the local mayor to “f*** off” during a civic visit and then turned to two police officers and a vicar and added: “You can f*** off too.”

The version i read stated that after Barney had told the 2 police officers and a vicar "You can f*** off, too!" he paused for a couple of seconds then added the word " W@nkers!"

My uncle Sam, long since passed over to the other side, taught his and my auntie Beryl's budgie to do much the same. Bizarrely the subject of the budgie's profanity was also a vicar who visited them just after they had moved into their brand spanking new council flat in the early 1960s, unfortunately for the vicar, my uncle Sam was irreligious and had taught the budgie to add the word 'vicar' onto the end of his exclamation and yes, the budgie, on being politely admired by the vicar, came out with "F u c k off, vicar". ;D ;D ;D
