Ooh you've only uploaded three of them...which one didn't I send you? Of the four I've made though, the third and fourth are probably the best anyway.

Urgh, stupid link reading software. Obviously, you need to copy and paste the whole link in to the browser. I'll correct the links later

Hehe, the things he says are mainly in either my voice or Kel's (depending on whom he learnt it off, basically). He says a few things in a much deeper voice which presumably he picked up from either Kel's dad or her brother.
Anyway, I have him till early September (the 5th or something), so expect more weird and silly noises (whenever he starts making them when I am actually on my comp and not in the middle of a game or something) :D.

I fixed the links. Did anyone see that Life after People program a while back? If all humans suddenly vanished, any visitor to the planet would still hear human language due to parrots that have learned to speak escaping back to the wild. Might even last generations if their offspring learn it too! :-)

You mean something like "Polly wants a cracker. SQUAWK. BRAAAK. Gee, Captain Marley, where should we bury the treasure? Oh, the heck with it. Let's make a map, and tear it into four pieces. Head due east from the pond to the dinosaur. Head north from the dinosaur to the pile of rocks. Head due east from the rocks to the X."? :wink:

Yeah. That stuff. Except without the dinosaur. :-)

I guess I'm missing a joke somewhere, it might be something to do with the fact I haven't played Monkey Island.

Haven't had a chance to listen to them yet, but sound files (04) to (06) are available if you modify the above links! Apparently the last one is long but good :)

Yeah, in that he was actually making some proper noise. The other two mostly consist of me trying to get him to start up and as such it's mostly just me talking, with a few little noises from him. The git :P.
