Doesn't work for me either Mike. Will have a look at Sky News to see if I can find it elsewhere, unless you beat me to it of course!

I saw it, Michael. I know it's just a stupid pigeon (and believe me, I can see the funny side of it), but it still makes me angry to see innocent animals being used like this. Arrrrggggg. :-(

And over in Boston, Mass., cats are expected to sit on jurys; the fact  it can't speak or understand English seems a poor excuse for exemption which was so far, denied. I'm sure this will be give the attorneys paws for thought, pleading their case to a cat. Perhaps the case involves a drug-smuggling pigeon and the prosecution are looking for a sure-fire conviction?

Lol! Hello Paul! It's good to see you my friend. :-) Yes, I too heard about the cat summoned for jury duty. I think it's hilarious that when attempting to get the cat exempt from service they were refused! Lol.
