:57:01
Pinin' for the fjords?
What kind of talk is that?
:57:06
Look, why did it faIl flat on its back
the minute l got it home?
:57:10
Well, the Norwegian blue prefers
keeping on its back. Beautiful plumage.
:57:14
Look, l took the liberty of examining
that parrot and l discovered...
:57:18
the only reason it had been sitting
on its perch in the first place...
:57:22
was that it had been
nailed there.
:57:25
Oh, well, of course
it was nailed there.
:57:27
lf l hadn't nailed it there, it would
have muscled up to those bars and boom.
:57:31
Look here mate.
:57:34
This parrot wouldn't boom
if you put 4,000 volts through it.
:57:39
lt's bleedin' demised.
:57:42
No, it's pining.
:57:44
lt's not pining,
it's passed on.
:57:49
This parrot is no more.
:57:52
lt has ceased to be.
:57:54
lt's expired and
gone to see its maker.
:57:57
This is a late parrot!
:58:01
lt's a stiff.
:58:03
Bereft of Iife.
lt rests in peace.
:58:06
If you hadn't nailed it to the perch,
it would be pushing up the daisies.
:58:10
lt's run down the curtain
and joined the choir invisible.
:58:14
This is an ex-parrot.
:58:22
Well. I'd better
replace it then.
:58:24
lf you want to get anything done in
this country you've got to complain ...
:58:27
till you're blue in the mouth.
:58:29
Sorry, squire.
We're right out of parrots.
:58:32
l see.
l get the picture.
:58:35
- l've got a slug.
- Does it talk?
:58:41
Not really.
:58:43
Well, it's scarcely
a replacement then, is it?
:58:49
Listen. l didn't want
to work in a pet shop.
:58:53
l wanted to be a lumberjack.
:58:58
Sorry. This is irrelevant.
