What could be the best Parrot joke of all time....
A family go to buy a Parrot. They enter Migel's Finest Parrot Emporium. There is a very very large selection. They enquire about a fine specimen in red, in a very large cage. Migel warns the family that this Parrot has something of an attitude. Enquiring as to what Migel means, he demonstrates by locking the doors and windows then releases the Parrot from his cage. The Parrot jumps on top of the cage and declares
" I am from <your home town> and I am ****** well hard! "
Dad is well impressed by this and wants to purchase the Parrot. His wife is reluctant. Migel warns them of his "NO refunds" policy and a deal is struck. Parrot purchased.
After a week of " I am from <your home town> and I am ****** well hard! " Mum and Dad are both fed up and want to return the Parrot. Migel is contacted. He reminds them of the refund policy but offers them some advice...
"Place a larger bird in the cage. That may calm him down some. It could work"
On Saturday evening a Crow in placed in the cage. On Sunday morning the Crow is dead and the Parrot announces...
" I am from <your home town> and I am ****** well hard! "
A Seagull is placed in the cage on the following Saturday night. On Sunday morning the Seagull is dead and the same proclamation comes from the Parrot.
Discussions are had and it is agreed that Uncle Albert's Kestrel is borrowed for the weekend as Kestrels are known to be extremely "hard" birds.
Saturday night. The Kestrel is inserted into the Parrot's cage and the family retire to bed. Sunday morning. The Parrot is standing, proudly, on his perch - There is not one single feather left on him. The Kestrel is dead. The Parrots sniffs, shrugs his shoulders and announces....
" I had to take me coat off for that
@&%% "
NB - When read in a South London gangster style accent...
Best regards to all here.
