All weekend my african grey parrot Ronnie has been saying 'Carys, Carys - come on - who's a good girl then' over and over repeatedly He picks up everything so quickly! Usually its 'Murray! Oh God - what have you done now?'

Murray doesn't take any notice of him now but poor little Carys keeps trying to figure out who is calling her Ronnie says everything with my accent so she thinks it's me calling her...

When I had a cold recently Ronnie took to imitating me sniffing and coughing. Now that was really annoying Worse then him doing the MacDonalds advert 'I'm lovin it'

No further photos of Carys as rechargeable batteries for camera blew up today:ohmy:

I was talking to my parents on skype the other day and the dogs at their end all ran to the windows trying to figure out where I was. A parrot would be very distracting though!!

My Sister also has a parrot , and it insists and training her dogs. They are very obedient and somewhat confused when my sister is no where to be seen but they keep being told to sit-up, lie-down, roll-over. The parrot even gives them a treat by throwing bits of food out of it cage !!!

That sounds great fun..... you should both video that!
