Potty-mouthed parrot who calls drinkers ‘stupid’ after learning obscenities from booze gets hit hard at Cornwall pub

A parrot who calls drinkers “w***ers” is a hit at his pub.

Frosty the African gray has lived with Scott Sowden since he was a puppy and learned obscenities from customers.

Owner Scott, 57, said: “He’ll say ‘hello’ then ‘f*** off’ but his favorite word is ‘w***er’. I think he means it with affection. He likes the ring of the word.

“We had the Tory club recently, 12 of them sat on the tables Next to his cage and didn’t stop saying that.

“It can be embarrassing when kids are around, but mostly they don’t understand.”

Guests book stays at the Vyvyan Arms Hotel in Camborne, Cornwall, just to see Frosty, 19.

Scott was offered £3,000 for it but said: “It’s part of the pub. We love it here.”

It comes after another budgie was named Britain’s rudest pet last year.

Louie, an African grey, would use so much foul language that owner Andy Ashby, 50, was forced to put up a sign warning customers.

Andy said: “He’s got Tourette’s, bless him.

“He swears the most when he wants to be noticed.

“If everything is quiet, he’ll start a massive mess and start jumping up and down and shaking his head.

“It comes upon him on the spur of the moment. He only goes on one.

“We had bingo the other night and when Legs Eleven came on he blew the whistle.

“The bingo caller told him to shut up and he told him to ‘f*** off.’

However, Andy says Louie has brought some personality to the Nailmakers Arms, the Sheffield boozer he’s been running for the past eight months.
