    Oh come on, Al, I'm never going to fly into a Kitchen window, and if you think I'm going to sit upright in a bowl full of hot towels....Naah!!!:lunapic 130165696578242 5: I'll give that the "bird" if you don't mind!:heehee:

    The poor Sparrow was stunned though from the impact but I thought it was best to give him the option of being able to fly asap by just holding him gently in my hand until he was ready to fly. I think he sits for his Pilots Licence again tomorrow:snork:
