No, not the real one, but the "Warnie Dolls" have been particularly vocal today. Unfortunately i cannot catch what he's been saying.

I had a talking Booney, and now also have a talking Warney.

What has got me stumped is how it knows when to talk. The old talking booney used to be set off by a high-pitched beep that came through on the TV via the telecast, but the Warney has been talking on cue without any apparent beeping noise from the TV! Does anyone know how this sucker works??

Another funny story with Talking Booney's....

My mate had one and his parents came down after the cricket was over, to stay with him for a few days. By this time Booney was starting to go hey-wire and talking at all times of the day and night.

His parents were sitting around watching TV late one evening when they could hear "strange voices" coming from outside. Not being aware of the Booney doll next to the TV, they proceeded to search the outside of the house armed with hockey sticks numerous times after hearing the voices, until it finally clicked that it was the Booney Doll making the noise!
