A man’s working in a bar one night...
... when suddenly a black guy comes in with a parrot on his shoulder. He walks up to the bar and the parrot squawks:

“A pint of lager for him, and a gin and tonic for me please!”

Amazed, the barman pours the drinks, asks for £5 and the black man puts a note on the table and walks off with the glasses.

20 minutes later, the black man with a parrot on his shoulder walks up again. Again, the parrot squawks:

“A pint of lager for him, and a gin and tonic for me please!”

Again, the barman pours the drinks, the black man puts his note on the table and walks off with the glasses.

Another 20 minutes pass, and the black man and the parrot come up for a third time.

“A pint of lager for him, and a gin and tonic for me please!”

Again, the barman pours the drinks, and again the black man puts down a £5 note. The barman’s curiosity has peaked, so before the black man walks off again he says:

“That is absolutely amazing. Where can I get one of those?”

And the parrot squawks:

“Go to Africa mate. There’s fucking millions of them!”
