I bet the woman said "Does polly want a frickin' cracker now?!"

Yeh, blame the messenger! Makes me wonder, this may provoke scores of jealous blokes to buy their girlfriends a parrot... If my gf had a parrot, it would probably be able to sing the Eastenders theme-tune within a couple of weeks.

Start sounding like that gangsta bloke, Johnny is it?

I guess the moral of that story is to not own a parrot if you want to cheat on your partner...

👍 to that man.

"As Mr Wendel's "performance art" did not harm any of the ancient relics, he was not arrested or charged but given "serious criticism", the reports said."

Anyway, I appreciate harmless creative stories like that, that make the news.
