"I am pleased to meet you, Calvin. As you say, any friend of Jaclyn's is a friend of ours, too.<br/><br/>"What can I get you to drink?" I start to ask, before my voice is drowned out by a shrieking from  a lofty perch in the corner.<br/><br/>"Oh, sorry!" I shout, "That's Robbie, my pet cockatoo and the house bird. He is not used to other males being in the bar, and gets jealous if he doesn't get attention."<br/><br/>"He  usually responds very well to being fed crackers, though, I find. We have some for sale, actually."<br/><br/><br/><br/>(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/2/28/Close-up-view-of-a-mightily-angry-cockatoo-2DEJTMB.jpg)
