      Good afternoon Catztail and ClaraLou ,Rosie whistle,s the theme from the Adams Family(Thanks to my son)again and again:rolleyespink:She also calls Gypsy.Tiny and Penny in from the garden,and says hello to us by name,she has the telephone ringtone off to a fine art,and when I run in from the garden,she stops and says hello Woo,she has a vast vocabulary and often repeats my exclamation when I hit my finger instead of the nail:WINK1:

        Parrots are spookily smart!

        I seem to remember one hit the headlines a while ago for telling a local dignitary exactly where he could go. He then eyed up the rest of the entourage and paused for a moment before announcing: 'you can **** off too.' :heehee::heehee:

          What type of Amazon is Rosie Woo? I find it hard to tell the different ones apart.

          No matter, Woo. I'm sure she's lovely, whatever she happens to be called! And I'm sure she would never be as uncouth as poor old Barney! :heehee:

          Glad Penny's getting better. :)

          I think it was an African Grey in the Monty Python pet shop sketch. :heehee:

          Maggie Thatcher did a parody on it.

          Know this is very late Woo, but I did get a shock when you said Penny was unwell. Feel like I've known her all my life ???? Her & Tiny, remember all the pics etc. So very glad she's on the mend.
          Not to forget Gypsy though, she's the big momma! :) Softest of the lot eh? lol.
          Glad to 'see' you mate. Take care all of you x
