Polly Gone

A CHEEKY parrot, Scrumpy Jack, who escaped from his home in Stonehouse in July has been spotted alive and well.

Bev William's African Grey parrot has become a celebrity after the tale of his favourite catchphrase 'You are the weakest link, goodbye,' appeared in the News & Journal and went on to make national headlines.

This weekend Bev got a call to say that the adventurous bird had been spotted in a nearby garden.

"By the time I had run round there he was gone," said Bev. "But it is wonderful to know that he is alive and well."

Anyone with information should call Bev on 01453 826160.
