This story from a magazine had me in tears of laughter.
I have read a few about AG's that have had me in mirth, including a woman who found out her husband was cheating when her bird kept repeating his Mistress' name!!!!
This one even topped THAT though!
A retired couple from the bottom coast of England in Devon, often go on day trips to France as they live 15mins away from the ferry.
As usual, they arranged for their daughter to come and check the dog and parrot were ok, feed them in the afternoon....walkies etc.
On the way home on the ferry in the evening, their mobile phone rang and it was the police saying there was a disturbance and siege going on involving their home.
Racing home in the car from the ferry, their street was blocked off. Neighbours reported shrieking and the police had already been alerted by the burgler alarm.
The police explained that they'd knocked on the door and a man asked: Who is it? They said: Police, open up! The man said: GO AWAY!
So they blocked off the street and were waiting it out.
It transpires, the dog knocked the burgler alarm which frightened him and he started shrieking! The african grey was simply answering the police the best way he knew how HAHAHAHAHAHA!
So lesson learnt for many of us! You can't even go on a day trip without your doggie and fid costing £'s of police time and your neighbours thinking you are being murdered!
