BB FANS

My parrot is called Barny and he's an African Grey [looks like a big pigeon with a bright red tail!]
He was three when we got him and we called him Georgie for the first week until one day he said 'Hello Barny Rubble' and basically put us right in the name department.
He yacks constantly and imitates anything he hears-including 13 year old boys 'hilarious' swear words - which of course are the clearest words Barny can say-especially when we have visitors
Such is life

Polo doesnt swear we try not to around him!!

He was looked after by my mum when we went on holiday last year and now says "bugger" Thanks mum!!

I just nipped off to the toilet and walked past him he danced at me and cos i didnt dance back he said i was "naughty"

He's VERY noisy macaws are the loudest of all parrots... but we love him and couldnt be without him now!! He really is like a child, we dont have any kids so we have lots of animals instead!!

I know what you mean - they are such characters and are REALLY family members. Barny's 9 this year and the stuff he does is hysterical -
My hubby does exercise to a video [he'd die of shame if he knew I'd posted that ] But anyway, when Barny hears the music he starts dancing straight away and does'nt stop until it's finished.
He even bats his wings up and down/jerks his head from side to side in time with the music-it's unbelieveable to watch.

Anyway I'm off to bed now
Ta ta

Night!!

Im off now too...gotta go and prise my other half off the sofa!

I find that when I stand up one half follows the other...

Hurry up and get him off obo - this parrot poo is making me cough

The easiest way is to press the Quote button and place the vertical text insertion bar '|' AFTER the quoted text. Hit Preview to see how the Quote remarks work with the square brackets. It's difficult to explain the quotes exactly because it will stick my text in quotes!

Looks like in your Reply you've got 2 EndQuote remarks. Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it soon! We all had to learn!

like this sorry like thisi cant do it

Easiest way is to hit the 'quote' button instead of reply, then go to the bottom of the text it shows and type your answer/message. If you want to edit the quoted text then you can - just leave the bits in square brackets alone where they contain "quote" and "/quote"

To highlight text, making it bold, in italics, or colour, you select the bit of text you want to highlight by dragging the mouse over, holding the button down, THEN click on the function in the edit stage.

Try hitting quote on this message (next to 'reply') and look at how it's been done. Always remember to use the '/' trigger to un-do the feature you've turned on.

thanks for helping ill get there eventually they could make it easier though.

S'OK - you'll get used to it! Nobody said life would be easy...

Do you mean the quote at the very bottom, like my 'BB who'??

If so, go into 'profile' at the top bar, and in your profile you should find something called 'signature'. Think that's it. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry, but I loved this message, made me laugh especially 'cos I'm still learning myself.
