Really ... I'm quite fond of it ... and remember' "Christmas is coming; the geese are getting fat ... "

Ooops ... did I say "Christmas"? Maybe "Holidays" would be less offensive to you-know-who.

Maybe you would enjoy it more if you got out there with a gun and a dog ... get a little exercise ... blast away with gay abandon

On matters avian Eric.

My old mate Wandering Walter used to ask “Which would you rather tackle Fettler – one horse sized duck or 10 duck sized horses?” I used to blink and think “ What the duck are you on about Walt?” and Walter would smirk at me gnomically. I know now what he was getting at.

They wander freely and with confidence all around the area, one of the males favourite places to roost is on the chimney stack of the house across the back alley from mine.

And what of the poor affronted woman you ask? My sources tell me she gathered up her brood all the while reciting to them from the holy book (Qur'an, 7: 199) Hold to forgiveness, command what is right, and turn away from the ignorant.
