Barbara Windsor thinks sparrows can’t sing, hence bargain offers, Chiesmans of Lewisham used to sell kids for two farthings, if you spent fifty quid on a GPlan teak dining table. Then Harold Wilson nationalised the sprog allocation trade whilst economy mangling, this caused the rapid demise of the farthing, from four for a penny to oblivion in the puff of a pipe.

And the rustle of a Gannex mac where resided that famous pound, the one that was worth something, he reckoned, not nine hundred and sixty farthings worth, that’s for sure.

Can you imagine trying to shove nine hundred and sixty farthings into a Tesco’s trolley and how would the Big Issue seller help retrieve and then claim them, ugly scenes in the car park, I’ll be bound.

Well, no, actually. I only paid a farthing, but the infuriating thing is that, when I released them to soar across the sky, they both promptly fell to the ground.

Mr Dawkins : I suspect you’ve got yourself into a tizz because you were overcharged and paid more than a farthing for your pair of sparrows.

You are clearly either stupid or a liar. What evidence do you have that sparrows are the slightest bit influenced by your father? Why not your cousin or the hot babe next door? And if sparrows, why not robins? Not to mention this shows just how cruel and murderous your father must be if he thinks sparrows falling to the ground is a good thing. Is this the same dude who told you to murder lambs to prove you loved him? Now he says a sky raining sparrows shows he is well pleased? Scientists much smarter than you will tell you that if sparrows don't fall to the ground it's because of air pressure and wind dynamics, so forget all this nonsense and just enjoy your sex life.
