   I love canaries!!! My mum had one that was so old that it would fall off it's perch all the time... until one day it didn't get back on.
 Anyway it's such a shame they have 30second memories, they are such pretty birds it would be neat if you could teach them stuff.
 Yay for you and the new pets    |

 Not so much. In fact, not at all. Pathologically afraid even...
 My brother had a canary when we were younger tho, it's name was Sunny.

   How cool, we had a canary when I was younger. My youngest sister called him Bart. |

     I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
