"Bird" is another name for a female over here. Kinda like chick. Alot of parks and highly bird populated areas have signs up that say "Do not feed the birds" so it's a play on words almost.

Most UK chocolate bars are slim. The Yorkie is nearly 3/4" of an inch thick and is solid chocolate! Each chuck is literally a mouthful. The product was aimed at men because most chocolate bars are pretty girly so Nestle changed their advertising campaigne to the "Not for girls" There is a rival bar made by Cadbury, (Nestle and Cadbury are the market leaders in the UK for chocolate), and they have a bar which is similar in design but thinner called the Dairy Milk. Their advertisment was very girly and showed a woman enjoying her chocolate, nibbling it, etc... so Nestle advertised the Yorkie which a Trucker biting the huge chucks off whole. Pretty much all chocolate ads are aimed at women so Nestle just aimed one at men. They also have special ones that they said to the Military for ration packs, (they also advertise the Yorkie on the sense that it's a hunger buster), and on the side of those it says "Not for civvies". They also do a limited edition once in a while that's a pink wrapper and says "Not for men".
