Re: Herding geese to market over 80 miles...
Well you must remember Pat wages were so low and the geese were quite domesticated
perhaps they did clip one wing to put them off balance if they tried to become airborne .
No use clipping both as we found out by experience.

Re: CCT
No Wiley old plodders I expect we used to keep about 50 and they could fly for short spans and then flop down.

Re: I can just see the picture of the Geese in the country side being herded
Pretty quiet on the roads they may have used the old Roman roads for some of the way
Kabu although one would have thought it would have been better to raise the geese nearer London.

They sure weren't Canada geese or they would have wound up in Florida.

Herding geese to market over 80 miles...
Surprising they didn't fly away, unless their wings had been clipped.
