    Jean they are little blighters, I do not know who said they prefer pots but I have them in the borders and they are making a right mess of my Cornus.

    Moaning Geoff, are you a good shot?

    Interesting reports in media about Crispello. It's a new lite chocolate from Cadburys 'aimed at women'. It's controversial as feminists do not want feminist chocolate. They are offended by the concept that women do not want to put on weight. Very confusing.

  • Hi everyone.

    Lovely morning here in Lincolnshire, we are forecast a rain free day, so hoping to get cosmos and other annuals consigned to compost heap.

    Jean- I water all my containers that I want to keep over winter with Pravado vine weevil killer, it kills the vine weevil grubs that are lurking in the soil, and so far I have been lucky.

    Geoff, Goose taste very nice, but there isn't a lot of meat on them, they look huge before they are cooked, nice with apple or gooseberry sauce, but very expensive. Never tried wild goose though, be a job to catch I would imagineimage

    Mary is a style icon.

    Chris, I think that is what I will do. I've been lucky so far - my biggest problem being slugs and snails.image

    Gary, it wouldn't offend me - I'ld eat it regardless.image

    Hope it's warmer in your part of the world Kate, really cold here I've just ventured out to fetch some more rainwater for watering . Like to keep it at room temperature for indoor plants.

    I have never eaten goose but have heard it's very fatty . I've found some suitable shooting attire for you , Geoff.

    Most men don't care about what they eat, as long as it's tasty. Those who do watch what they eat, probably do so for medicinal/nutritional reasons, rather than anything to do with appearance.

    We used to keep geese once-upon-a-time. Adult geese can be very aggressive. But there is a way a catching them. You need to boldly grasp them around the neck. That requires a lot of courage. I have never done it. They are also a nightmare to pluck. I assume you will be plucking your own.

  • My husband hads diabetis and treats it through his diet. Its a bit like wearing a hair shirt at times. When hes been out with the lads and a had a sherbert or 5 hes comes home and raids the fridge and cupboard and blames wveryone for eating it all.
