Excuse my ignorance, but whilst I have managed to get a fair sized Turkey into a standard oven, I have never tried getting a full grown fat goose into the oven, is it possible without having bits hanging out.
Is there a particular variety of Goose, or will any goose do.

Blimey, somebody's had some very UNmerry Christmases in the past. Personally, I've always found it to be (another) good excuse to have a few drinks and a laugh with family and friends. Not forgetting the turkey, though he wasn't a bundle of laughs either.

Can someone give me a call when the 3 of you try to catch them? Geese can be pretty formidable, they're used instead of guard dogs in some places.
I could really do with a good laugh...

You're right Dawn - my wife is petrified of them! She won't go anywhere near them because they hissed at her and started coming towards her once. Strange thing is they and I saunter past each other quite happily! I wonder if it is the same as other animals, when they can sense someone's fear? |

WL maybe they understand the sound of lips smacking and the drooling so give you a short birth maybe (3 metres would do it) so they can outrun you.

| Yes, one of them just disappeared a couple of days ago, and I am reliably informed by my wife that Thais don't eat goose, so that rules out one group of suspects! I can say, hand on heart, that I had nothing to do with it either, but there was a strange farang cruising past on his motorbike around the time of the disappearance.... |
