In his excitement, Graham had arrived early and the florist had all ready been. He was lucky he managed to get a photographer at the last minute. While he waited , he was getting a little worried as time was getting on, and his new bride was nowhere to be seen He paced up and down , by the floral arrangements..  All of a sudden this Little hen came into view , looking a bit flushed and hurrying towards him...  ''Hello im Tiddles, Im sorry im late..i was preening so much, i forgot the time..it must have been nerves..'' Although Green was a little miffed she was late, boy was she a stunner! he thought, and much younger than he thought she might be.  His face just gleamed at the beauty of his new wife to be!  They exchanged vows, and all was going well, but Tiddles was a bit too shy for a kiss..  At the reception they saw all thier wedding cards and flowers, and had a huge lot of wedding gifts.  Graham introduced Tiddles to his favorite man human, and being a gentleman helped Tiddles onto his shoulder..  Then they did some dancing, and had fun doing the ''Budgie Bop'' and the ''Jitterbudge''  Graham was a very happy Bird, and thought his new bride was a little star..  When it was time to leave..Tiddles tried throwing her bouquet, but sadly nobody caught it, so she took it with her.  The best man,( who dissapeared during the reception! ) saw the happy couple off in thier ''Chauffer carried carriage'' Graham was just too happy to be annoyed with him...  anyway i leave you with a picture of the new bride  And Bob ..The best man..(cheeky little chappie) who escaped from the photographers jacket, while she was trying to dognap him    |

Whistling parrot halts soccer game
pa.press.net
A parrot halted a football match with a perfect impression of the referee's whistle.
Me-Tu is a regular at matches at his local ground and often entertains fans by repeating what they say.
But referee Gary Bailey was not impressed when the parrot mimicked his whistle and brought the quarter-final of the Hertfordshire Senior Centenary Trophy to a standstill.
Mr Bailey told the parrot and owner Irene Kerrigan to leave the ground so the match between Hertford Heath and Hatfield could continue uninterrupted.
Hatfield FC chairman Ted Collie said: "It was a very tense game as we were 0-0 at the time. When Gary Bailey realised it was this parrot, he started towards it, pointing to the entrance and said 'would you mind leaving?' He said he should have red carded the parrot.
"I had my grandson with me who's 11 and he thought it was hilarious."
Hatfield won 5-2 in extra time and Mr Collie added: "This has put a smile on everyone's face. We didn't think for a minute it was a ploy by Hertford Heath to put us off."
Hertford Heath manager Clive Adlington said Me-Tu's owner Ms Kerrigan takes the parrot in his cage to nearly every home game but added: "It's the first time it's been whistling. Suddenly in the second half the whistling started and the players kept stopping.
"Fortunately it happened in the centre of the pitch but it happened about four times although it didn't affect the result at all."
Mr Adlington said Ms Kerrigan has said she plans to take Me-Tu to watch the team's reserves play at home on Saturday.

Hi and welcome
I dont know alot about them, but i should imagine they are easy to keep in pairs at least. They are pretty active, so a nice size cage, if you are not handling them alot. I see some really pretty ones in a local pet shop, and often thought about taking a couple home.

The day before the wedding....... Tommorow is the big day! all his week Graham has been quivering with excitement, doing what he does best Preening! Hes so glad he has no pins at the moment ....awww shucks i think hes found one  Hes a little embarrased as he does have a very small feather on his head a little out of place. Hes hoping it will drop for his big day tommorow.  Hmm he's been wondering all week what Tiddles looks like, and also if she would'nt mind being called 'Tid' for short  Last weekend he helped with the decorating and the arrangements of he bottom flat they will be sharing. Its warden assisted thank goodness, and this week has had some last finnishing touches. He spent the week in it, so he would be able to show Tiddles the ropes when she arrives. Hes really hoping she will like the new straw bedroom   Well ...while Green waits to meet Tiddles, he has had the cleaners in today, to make the new flat totally spick and span for tommorow.  |

Now Blind woofys do very well, but i comes a time when a blind woofy may go deaf too, and thats when the downside comes in for this reason  If like me, you the human does spend alot of time walking around with just pants on and bear legs, you are forever getting cold and wet ears and noses in your way. Blind woofys like to be close , so where ever you are, the wet floppy ears and wet nose is close by. They also tend to shake them very close , so if you dont get a wet nudge, you will get a wet spray every now and then. Its cold, and always is a shock, so you do tend to say'' Ughhhhh ''alot. The other thing a blind and almost deaf woofy will do, is lie anywhere around the home, normally in doorways, or where you want to be. Often sneeking up, and lying quietly right behind you, so you fall over them, and almost break your neck. Because Blind Woofys like to be close, they tend to take up more room than humans on beds and sofas. This particular Blind Woofy loves to feel her humans close to her, to the extent she will lie on top of them when they are on a sofa, or during the night will often almost nudge them out of bed. So be aware if your Woofy sadly does go blind, there are some downsides for us Humans! |

I almost asked how the children are taking it, he had been with them for so long, and i know Jamie had such a soft spot for Sherby
My favorite picture of him, will always be the one where 3 birds are together ,and he is looking sideways at the camera. His face was such a picture in that one.
