Tongue-twisting budgie is CD star. The linguistic skills of a Geordie budgie that died more than 40 years ago have been immortalised on a CD published by the British Library.
Sparky lived in Newcastle until 1962 and had a repertoire of more than 500 words and 380 sentences. His stuffed remains are on show at the Hancock Museum in Newcastle, where visitors hear examples of his mimicry.

I remember that crazy budgie!
You used to press a big brass button and it played one of his phrases!
NL trip to the shrine of Sparky anyone? ;)
You had better hurry up if you want to go there as it's shutting for 3 years very soon. It's being extended to include the other museums around the area. it looks like it will be evn better when it gets re-opened
