Bird brained filth

[sawyl]

My dad and my sister have just told me the following story, which they swear is true. I on the other hand, have my doubts. Here, in it's full unadulterated form, it goes:

The mayor and various local dignitaries were visiting the zoo. They were shown a parrot which, on being introduced to the mayor, said loudly, "You can fuck off!" The vicar cleared his throat uncomfortably where upon the parrot remarked, "And you can fuck off too. In fact, the whole lot of you can just fuck off!" The shamefaced zoo keepers took the parrot into the other room and explained to the visiting members of the great and the good that the parrot had formerly been the pet of a builders labourer...

Unconvinced as I maybe by the veracity of the story, I love the image of the mayor in all his finery being insulted by a foul-mouthed avian...

Update: Turns out the folks weren't trying to blag me, there really is a swearing parrot. He's called Barney and he lives in Nuneaton. No wonder he fucking swears.
