Title: stolen geese
Post by: bigchicken on December 22, 2013, 09:27:45 am
Anyone heard the story of the 100 geese stolen from a farm down south, I heard this on the radio the other day. Must have been some noise.

Wonder if the high winds are being used by the thieves, it's very good at masking the noise of our geese. Would probably mean that they could get them away without being heard.

Shygirl is right. It would be very easy to herd a gaggle of geese into a trailer. 100 geese is a lot of money's worth to lose hope they catch the scumbags that took them.

Nooo....Ronnie is near us and the nicest man you could hope to meet. If I got hold of who would steal from him I wouldnt be responsible for my actions - but suffice to say my Doberman would be actively involved :-((((((((
