Beware of Goons! LOL

[JayInOz]

Just recieved my R-com pro 20 which I ordered from the state of Victoria a few days ago. Was reading through the instructions, which are only slightly less complicated that the space shuttle operators manual. It's written in "Chinglish" which I don't usually have a problem with, but at the bottom of page 24, it says "! Do not place any goons near the incubator". :lol: This one has me stumped. Any suggestions? I've warned the wife not to open the door to Welsh tenors or anyone resembling Spike Milligan- what else should I do? JayInOz

I thought everyone knew what a goon was!

have you ever heard of a 'spork'...... its like a spoon with prongs which enables it to be used as a fork as well.

Clearly a 'goon' is a gun which doubles up as a spoon!

and I think everyone should have one.......maybe a 'dragons den' idea?!?

Quite why you should keep your goon away from the incubator? well you got me stumped

[Tommy No Mates]

Nope nothing as come to mind yet,Ill keep thinking:lol:

Hi Jay, I've just had a look at my manual at page 24 and can't see referance to "goon" anywhere:confused: Perhaps the manuals going to Oz have been sabotaged just to annoy you? could you expand on the context of the section so I can have another look,

G'day Alistair. Definitely bottom of page 24 in my manual, just under a highlighted paragraph about dew condensation. One thing I have noticed- the R-com Pro 20s advertised here on the IFF are last years model (2008) with the "new improved humidity control which does away with the humidification pad". I assumed that the one I've just bought- as in last week- would be the latest and greatest, but it came with the humidification pad- hope I haven't just paid a heap of money for an outdated model :(.
The very first thing written on the front cover of my manual is "Most Valuable Life Birth with R-COM" :) What about yours? JayInOz

[Tooker]

Maybe you should keep Arsenal supporters away?

[JayInOz]

Now why the heck would it replace the number eight- 2008- with a smiley face with sunglasses? Tommy keep looking mate- this is important stuff LOL JayInOz

[Tommy No Mates]

[Malcolm Edgar]

Hi Jay, I've solved the puzzle. Your manual must be the one specially made for the colonies:goodman: After reading mine, on page 21, under Dew condensation, it says "Do not place GOODS near the incubator,

Hahaha! Thanks Alistair. Now why didn't I think of that? I'll have to try to forget about goons now- the wife is getting really tired of my Spike Milligan impressions:) I suppose the majority of forum members would be too young to know what I'm talking about. Here's some stuff for the younguns to study:) http://www.thegoonshow.net/downloads.asp JayInOz

Alistair,why did you tell him?we could have kept this going for a while:lol::wink:
