Two parrots

[Ruddy]

Two parrots were sitting on a perch......
One parrot said "I think I can smell fish"

[Bendigo Bob]

Man I'm gettin old - took me ages to get that :)

[groverwa]

It is a good thing that the Perch was not a Blind Mullet:o

[rwbuild]

Hope the perch is sturdy or they may snapper

[Rodgera]

If they snapper they'll end up with flatheads!

[Bendigo Bob]

Not even gonna try to compete with you guys :U

[Lyle]

If they snapper the'll need to be careful not to flounder....

[Ruddy]

Maybe they smelt fish!

[rwbuild]

or just hooked on bait

[Bendigo Bob]

Now listen here you guys - just how many parrot/fish jokes/puns are there in this world????

(jealous one speaks, the guy who can never remember the punch line)

[groverwa]

How long is piece of string or have look at the following for starters:devilred: :o Fish Puns – Punpedia (http://punpedia.org/fish-puns/)A large collection of Fish Jokes (http://www.photosbykev.com/wordpress/2009/05/17/fish-jokes/)Fishing Jokes and One-Liners | Drowning Worms (http://drowningworms.com/tittle-tattle/fishing-one-liners/)Fish Jokes - Animal Jokes (http://www.jokes4us.com/animaljokes/fishjokes.html)

[Bendigo Bob]

Ha ha, Grover you've given the game away :) :) :) They're all trawling through Google

(Hey, I made a pun! can go to bed now)

[KBs PensNmore]

If they flounder, they might have to scale it back a bit:D

[rwbuild]

or go for a roe

[KBs PensNmore]

Gotcha, hook, line and sinker on that one.

[rwbuild]

Hope they don't pike out

[KBs PensNmore]

But they might make the Salmon run.

[Uncle Al]

You blokes are having a whale of a time with this thread.

Alan...

[groverwa]

"You blokes are having a whale of a time with this thread." and that is no Fluke that this is happening.

[rwbuild]

I wonder if this can be turned into a Podcast

[rustynail]

I wonder if this can be turned into a Podcast

Only for the right porpoise.

[Carry Pine]

Do I need to be the trumpeter to get the mods to close this down?

[A Duke]

Do I need to be the trumpeter to get the mods to close this down?
Hi I would have thought that they would have declared a bit fishy before now.
Regards

[rwbuild]

No bite on that bait, throw in some more burely

[Carry Pine]

The sole subject of this thread was about parrots. You blokes are out of line.

[chambezio]

I just read the joke to my wife and daughter.....they couldn't get it at all. I had to explain it. Then they commented that it was a dumb joke.
So I then told them about the two sailors scrubbing the deck. One said"Where's the soap." The other replied "Yeh"
Thy reckoned that was just as dumb

[groverwa]

Spooled by a Perch

[Carry Pine]

You blokes need to get reel. I won't be lured into this chat.

[doug3030]

You blokes need to get reel. I won't be lured into this chat.

they're just spinning you a line anyway CP

[rwbuild]

looks like a few have been caught in this fish trap

[Carry Pine]

looks like a few have been caught in this fish trap

Correct!! And they are breaming over with comments.

[fenderbelly]

Should we scale it back a bit I wonder.

[Carry Pine]

I thought I could tailor my comments but it's not possible. I'll have to pike on this one.

Cp

[groverwa]

Is that a Forward Pike or a Backward Pike with or without a single or double somersault?

[rwbuild]

If it is, he might end up being skewered on a Marlin spike

[rrich]

My wife still doesn't get the perch part and she can't understand why I'm laughing.

We haven't had this good of a drivel in a long time.

[Bendigo Bob]

Wiping away tears now :)
Needed that laugh this morning, thanks guys.

[Carry Pine]

I told you the mods would cut this short. There is going to be a bullrout!

[rwbuild]

Or just another Red Herring

[fenderbelly]

with a mullet haircut

[KBs PensNmore]

Mind you it's good for the Sole, though not if you're a Flathead

[groverwa]

What if you are a Star Gazer - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargazer_(fish) and not an r Sole:o:D

[Bob38S]

I think some of you blokes are coming the raw prawn.

[groverwa]

"I think some of you blokes are coming the raw prawn."
Then throw it on the BBQ with the Perch

[Bob38S]

You could invite Jean Shrimpton for lunch.

[doug3030]

I think some of you blokes are coming the raw prawn.

And others may think its for the birds.

(remember the parrots, way back at the start before it all went fishy?) :doh:

CHeers

Doug

[rwbuild]

I dunno, aren't they Parrotfish

[Bob38S]

Are you really sure they were parrots and not galahs?

[doug3030]

Are you really sure they were parrots and not galahs?

Yes it definitely started out with parrots, but i am equally sure that galahs got involved along the way.

Cheers

Doug

[Rodgera]

That's net profit

[rwbuild]

or a case of loafs and fishes

[KBs PensNmore]

These jokes are making me burly up

[Bob38S]

Could that be you chumming up to us?

[groverwa]

Here we go again

Two parrots were sitting on a perch......
One parrot said "I think I can smell fish"

Are you sure they smelt a perch or was it a smelt that they smelt or was it just smelly:o:devil::ranting2:

[fenderbelly]

And don't forget Greg Norman ( the shark )

[fenderbelly]

MMMM 8 cats looking for a fish

[Carry Pine]

My wife saw that I was typing nonsense on the Woodwork Forum and she threw her bottle of Omega 3 capsules at me.
Luckily my injuries were only super fish oil!

CP

[rwbuild]

Not even going to try and top that one :2tsup:

[Bob38S]

CP

Perhaps you need to take your wife on a holiday, "Burleigh" Heads is nice at this time of the year.

[rwbuild]

Could even call in at Bait Haven on the way

[rustynail]

Bait Haven pet shop does a nice line of parrots.

[Chesand]

Bait Haven pet shop does a nice line of parrots.

Any Galahs ??

[Carry Pine]

Could even call in at Bait Haven on the way

Just south of Fisherman's Paradise.

[Oldgreybeard]

Would that be near Cape Cod?

[Oldgreybeard]

No, just checked - closer to Pelican Point!

[rwbuild]

Just a short boat ride from Cockatoo Island

[doug3030]

Why couldn't the two parrots have been oozlem birds and then the last five pages of bad puns would not have occurred? :?

Cheers

Doug

[KBs PensNmore]

Just a short boat ride from Cockatoo Island


Is that anywhere near Trev alley.

[rwbuild]

Why couldn't the two parrots have been oozlem birds and then the last five pages of bad puns would not have occurred? :?

Cheers

Doug

You wona make a bet

[fenderbelly]

They would have turned left at the second page

[groverwa]

They could have been from the " Oh - my doodle birds from the fukawe forest in the Amazon" :o:devilred:

[A Duke]

They could have been oo-ah birds flying in Australia saying oo_ah but it's dark in here.

[Bendigo Bob]

Good thing my bladder is still in good condition for an old fella, or I'd be p#^#$#g myself by now laughing.

[Carry Pine]

A full bladder but could you fill toucans?

CP

[ian]

time for a night parrot me thinks

[rrich]

Here we are at #77

I can't believe that this is still going on.

[Carry Pine]

Here we are at #77

I can't believe that this is still going on.

Still going on about fishing jokes? And no one's mentioned it spinning along.

[rwbuild]

Thats what happens when you have been lured in hook line and sinker

[Bob38S]

Wouldn't that be, "Come in spinner."

[ian]

Wouldn't that be, "Come in spinner."
but that would mean changing the joke to two pennies sitting on a comb

[Bob38S]

Would certainly be on ANZAC Day, but not in relation to this thread.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinnerbait

[Oldgreybeard]

Night parrot might be extinct, but could be Nankeen Night Heron

[ian]

"big, dumpy budgerigar, about the same size as a rainbow lorikeet" sighted in Western Australia
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2017/mar/23/night-parrot-sighting-confirmed-in-western-australia-for-first-time-in-100-years

https://i.guim.co.uk/img/media/18ae61b71416cf49a44d3b88252763f36857b749/0_70_2954_1773/2954.jpg?w=700&q=55&auto=format&usm=12&fit=max&

[Oldgreybeard]

Yes there have been a couple of sightings, but I beleive the status is "extinct" or "critically endangered" in most states. I have not heard of any live sightings outsude of the Queensland sighting in 2013 - I understand that this bird and perhaps one or two others, has subsequently been seen on a couple of occassions. Prior to that only 3 dead birds had been found in the past 30 years. (source Birdlife Australia)

But let's not haggle, You are correct, the species is not extinct -there are still a couple of birds in one area of Australia.

[ian]

so back to our parrots, they could be sitting on a Cooper Creek Catfish

[P.W.H.]

The sole subject of this thread was about parrots. You blokes are out of line.

CP


that was just a red herring!

[rrich]

Let me get further out of line with a prediction:

Neil is going to kill us.

[Chesand]

Neil is going to kill us.
All will be OK as long as the fish don't need cleaning.

[rwbuild]

Maybe we should scale it back abit

[Bob38S]

He would have a lot to trawl through before he finds us.

[ian]

but he might find a long line more effective

[Bob38S]

But the net result would be the same.

[doug3030]

Why don't you all get back to your sheds and do something productive instead of larking around in here? :rolleyes:

[ian]

The sole subject of this thread was about parrots. You blokes are out of line.

CP
larking? larking? we're talking about parrot fish, not sky larking

[Oldgreybeard]

larking? larking? we're talking about parrot fish, not sky larking
That sounds more like a songbird than a parrot - if Niel is on out tails, maybe we need a swift parrot

[rustynail]

We could all end up with Red Rumps.

[doug3030]

We could all end up with Red Rumps.

Or flatheads

[rwbuild]

it can be Tailored to anything you like

[doug3030]

I am filled to the bream with these damn puns :oo:
