Thanks, yes there is a funny story to it, well funny to me.
I come from a family of animal lovers, in fact I can't remember a time when we didn't have animals of one kind or another arround.
When I was a child of about 5 ish, maybe 40 or so years ago. My nan had a budgie with a bad leg. It didn't have a foot, but had the leg down to the ankle and the other leg was perfectly normal.
When she saw it in the pet shop she felt sorry for it, and knowing that almost nobody would want it, she decided that she would.
Anyway, every now and again it would just fall off it's perch and she would announce quite loudly that it was pissed again or say "that damn pissed budgie".
Well it's just one of those childhood memories that brings a smile to my face when I remember it. When I was trying to think of something to use on the forum, it just came to me ..... pissed budgie .... but I had to lose the space for it to be allowed on the forum.
So there you go, kind of funny, kind of sad, but it's a childhood memory that makes me smile. And seems perfect to use on a forum.
