Goose

[ratty]

If I wanted to buy a Goose to cook for new year where could I get one? Would I have to order it does you fink?

[SeanMacGabhann]

is this a trick question ratty?

Assuming William Rose is open tomorrow/today that's where I would head

[TillieTrotter]

We had an amazing goose for Christmas day which we purchased at Smithfields Market. You could also try Borough Market. Good Luck and enjoy. Mmmmmm

[SeanMacGabhann]

On the subject, I've never actually had goose.. recommendations like that nudge me in the right direction to remedy that - cheers Tillie

[TillieTrotter]

Go for it Sean. Hope you had a merry old christmas btw.

[Annasfield]

I know I'll get shot down in flames for this, but you'll probably be able to get one from Sainsburys. We always find that they're reduced after Christmas, as most people prefer turkey.

We went out for Christmas lunch, but has a beautiful roast goose on Boxing day. :))

If you HAVE to go to Sainsurys.......

Walk.

[SeanMacGabhann]

don't worry Annasfield - MP's comment is tongue-in-cheek and aimed at me....

[Annasfield]

I did wonder...

[SeanMacGabhann]

it's actually still making me chuckle - when you said you would be shot down in flames by mentioning Sainsbo's, I'm an obvious candidtate but it's Christmas! I'm not shooting flames at anyone...

But MP summarised my (by now recorded as a macro) usual response so well I'm STILL chuckling a few sentences later... bless 'im

[Michael Palaeologus]

I think that 2008 will see the putting to rest of "Sean hates cars japery". Time to move on. ;-)

[SeanMacGabhann]

But Sean DOESN'T ha..... oh never mind. How do we get this back on topic?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

At the risk of lowering the tone, Lidl has frozen geese.

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

Yep, Lidl do duck, crab and lobster too

[ratty]

Thanks v much all - looking forward to Goose on New Year Day. I won't drive to Sainsbury's, I live next to it!

[PeckhamRose]

Peckham Rye Park. Noisy buggers. ;)

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

You would have to kill a pair. Canada Geese mate for life, it would be so cruel to leave one lovelorn.

[PeckhamRose]

I Did Not Know That.

PeckhamRyePark is their singles club* though. So maybe get one before it meets its mate.

Ahhahahaahahaha

* and to confuse this with the other topic, clubs is better!

[MadWorld74]

don't forget your Prawn Ring from Iceland..........

[PeckhamRose]

You classy so and so.
