There´s a vague memory stirring, in the dark recesses of my primary-school memories, of a flock of geese honking to save Rome from Etruscans, or Carthaginians, or some other dastardly anti-Romish crew. (Or was it Elephants?) If this is true, the CG could be rounded up and sold as house-alarms. I for one would quite like to have a goose in the garden, to keep our little dog company and to annoy the neighbours. I bet they´d keep the cats out too.</p></blockquote><p></p>
