    A woman goes into a pet shop looking for a parrot.

    The assistant shows her a beautiful African Grey parrot.

    "What about this one, Madam? A beautiful bird, and its an absolute

    steal at only $20."

    "Why is it that cheap?" the woman asks.

    "Well", replies the asisstant, "it used to live in a brothel and as a
    result its language is a touch fruity".

    "Oh, I don't mind that", said the woman, making her mind up, "I'm broad
    minded and it'll be a laugh having a profane parrot".

    So saying, she buys the parrot and takes him home.

    Once safely in his new home, the parrot looks around and squawks at

    the woman. "F$% me, a new brothel and a new madam". "I'm not a madam

    and this is not a brothel" scolds the woman trying not to laugh.

    A little later the womans two teenage daughters arrive home. "Un

    f^%^ing-believable. A new brothel, a new madam, and now two new

    prostitutes" says the parrot when he sees the daughters.

    "Mum, tell your parrot to shut up, we're not prostitutes" complain the

    girls, but they all see the funny side and have a laugh at their new

    pet.

    A short while later, the womans husband Dave comes home.

    "In f^&*ing-credible, a new brothel, a new madam, new prostitutes,

    but the same old clients ..... How ya doin', Dave?"

    African Grey's are smart...but lets hope that they aren't that smart...Birdlady I'm sure knows more than me!

    Anyway, good one!
