That's great! Are they garden canes that you have used - if so, what a great idea! Can't wait to see the finished product (and a picture of your baby on it)!!!

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Of course, you are soooooo correct!!! (and I meant to put all of those "o's - and it underlined it)!!!

Ha Ha Ha! You're not wrong there Judy!!!!

I AGREE FULLY!!! I have never ever been so glad to be proved wrong in my life! What a great ending!!!

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness! I am so, so happy to have been proved wrong!! What absolutely fantastic news - how is your baby! Like I said - I apologise wholly to Jack - on this occasion I AM OVER THE MOON TO HAVE BEEN PROVEN WRONG!! Fantastic news!!!! :) How is your baby?

Harvey is 17 months old and he has lain on his back ONCE - and this was just a couple of weeks ago. He flipped upside down whilst I was standing up and I slowly sat down and rested him in my lap - but he wasn't too confident as he lay there, clinging still to my finger for dear life - so although he was resting on my lap - his thoughts were that he was hanging upside down! As for the regurgitation - I'm "lucky" in the fact that Harvey doesn't love me in that way - Ryan's completely right in the diversion technique, just walking away and not responding to their actions is the way to go

Oh how fantastic - thanks for sharing this. I find it amazing how resilient and clever these birds are

This is how I acquired my cockatiel Spiky Caitlin - his owners were moving abroad and said they were going to do the exact same thing. Well done for rescuing him - can't wait to see what happens (oh, and I love your new name!!!)

I've stopped Harvey reading your posts Spock - you may be kind but you are also a bad role model - but it's too late - you've obviously already discussed this with your servants and Harvey is very good at tactical diversions too - and it's always at bed time!! What Maggie will have to do at bed time is get herself into her best high heels to give her that bit "lift" - then she might stand more chance!!!

Ah Bonnie - I hope you enjoyed it! Unfortunately I was in the land of nod whilst you were enjoying yourself! These flaming time zones!!!

Please Janet - your sentiments are echoed entirely! Lock the thread - it's run it's course - we are all here for excel - hopefully she will return x

Not being funny folks - but I think this is a cruel hoax - the English doesn't even flow - and to be honest - how would he find here? Wouldn't he/she go to the police/vets/RSPCA - call me wary - but this just doesn't add up to me Please feel free to prove me wrong Jjck - and I will absolutely offer my sincere apologies - but otherwise, seriously, I think you are a hoaxer. Please, please prove me wrong.

Stephen, whoever you have "battles" with - PM them (obviously me included - I'll welcome you with open arms!). This is a thread for a lady who isn't coping with her brood. I don't care what value you hold me in - I'll have forgotten such a rude member by tomorrow anyway! Turn on you in a heartbeat - read your original response - no heart included.............!

Ha Ha! Yeah Lyn - a swift one on the way to the store perhaps - you know these retired types........!

You are just being downright rude now. You are boring me. I have told you that publicly and by PM - give in - I have asked for this thread to be locked. Oh - don't call me baby - nobody puts baby in a corner!!!!

Right - lock requested. The posts are no longer helpful - Lyn is right - we are here for you excel - we have all PMd you to say such - please keep in touch x

Anybody had a sneaky one yet? Although it's after 11pm here in the UK and I'm nearing my bed......

Hey! My video is in "a challenge for Harvey"!!! Piggy extrodinaire!! My grey can make me cry, in sad moments - just by looking at me - yip - not too happy atm!

Hey Phoebe - I think you are one brave girl! But - considering what I know about Dave & Jay - I would feel so safe in their hands! You have taken on a huge job - but with the guidance of these two - I'm sure you'll be a winner!

Ha Ha! We think we are "saving" them - they think we are "interrupting" them!! The mind of a grey!

My goodness - I could have just reiterated this post and agreed with EVERYTHING (which I of course do) - but this is FUNDAMENTAL for any potential or current parrot owner - it is our duty, our aim. Please follow wisely. What an absolutely FANTASTIC passage - and actually moves me (and that says something - I'm hard as nails!!!). Thank you for finding this Jay - what an insight.

So it's HIS fault - he let them "invade" our territory here in the UK!! Okay then Henry - I admit - I am really grateful for this one thing you did for us in history (read the rest and you'll agree, other than liking wedding cake he didn't do much more - apart from eat - he's famous for that too!!!). I'm loving this "snippet" history Jay - keep em coming!!!

What fab pictures of Pepper Brittany! I posted something similar about Harvey last week - it's so scary when they do this! Almost like an alien invasion! Brilliant photos though - thanks for sharing these xx

Hey - you can laugh Mrs Admin - but the sad reality of all this is - I CAN UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS SAYING!! What does that say about me!!!

Thanks for the explanation Caitlin!!! Much clearer now! Can't wait to hear about Sport! Hurry up - never mind work......!!!
