geese feed

I have this problem with geese:

Every time I see one ore more of them, I don't see them as they are. Walking and picking etc.

I see them on a great oval plate, plugged and stuffed, coming out of the oven, golden brown with the juices running down.

I can't help it.

Horst: they are quite appealing birds, though I know what you mean.

I cannot now remember which famous ornithologist dedicated one of his books: "To all who love birds, especially brown, piping hot and with bread sauce"

Never had a goose for years now but seem to remember there was always a lot of dripping. Could be my memory playing tricks though as it was 50 0dd years ago

My Yorkshire wife is fond of quoting a Yorkshire farmer:

"Ah reckon as oo t'goose is an akward bird: ower big fer yan but not enuff f't' two".
