Car insurance news
And you thought you were having a bad day?
Getting a fantastically cheap car insurance deal is probably the last thing on poor old Chris Taylor’s mind right now.
The thing is, the bloke’s had a bit of a tough time of it recently.
You see, Chris had a parrot. And this parrot was beautiful, one of the most beautiful parrots that ever lived. Eight years old, a noble African Grey with shiny feathers, two twinkling black eyes and a magnificent red tail. He really was a wonderful parrot and Chris named him Ziggy.
Now Chris and Ziggy lived happily in a cosy flat in Leeds, along with Chris’s girlfriend Suzy. Chris and Suzy seemed very happy - the perfect couple. They shared everything, and he even let her drive his car, adding her name to his motor insurance policy.
But things started to go wrong. Chris began to notice things.
Every time Suzy answered her phone Ziggy would croak, “Hiya Gary.” But he didn’t think anything of it, Ziggy must’ve just picked it up somewhere, and to be honest he did talk total rubbish half the time.
But then it got worse.
Ziggy started making smooching noises every time the name Gary was mentioned on TV. Something really wasn't right here. What was going on? Was Ziggy gay?
And then one cold, miserable winter evening it all became clear.
Chris and Suzy were snuggled up on the sofa watching their favourite programme on the telly when all of a sudden Ziggy let out a deafening squawk. “I love you Gary .”
I love you Gary? Chris was shocked, didn’t understand it at all. What was wrong with Ziggy? Turning to ask Suzy if she could understand it, it suddenly all clicked into place.
For Suzy was red. Not just red, bright red. Blushing like a monkey’s bottom.
How could Chris have been so stupid? He knew what was happening now. Suzy, his sweetheart, the perfect girlfriend, his true love, wasn't quite so perfect as she seemed. Her blushes said it all.
She’d been having an affair. For four whole months she’d been seeing someone else while Chris had been hard at work. And this lover’s name?
You guessed it. Gary.
Thinks were never quite the same again for the threesome. Suzy moved out soon after and Chris took her name off his car insurance. But Ziggy wouldn’t stop. He carried on his Gary-antics and even started mimicking Suzy’s voice.
This was too much for poor Chris and so Ziggy was forced on to pastures new. “I wasn't sorry to see the back of Suzy after what she did, but it really broke my heart to let Ziggy go,” he said.
"I love him to bits and I really miss having him around, but it was torture hearing him repeat that name over and over again."
So Chris ended up with nothing, miserable, upset and alone.
