Goosey Goosey Gander in Nova Scotia
Anyone know where I can pick up a goose for Xmas dinner?
And before any smart arses arrive - I am not going outside and catching a canadian goose. I want mine plucked and ready to throw in the oven please !

"I say and maintain, that of all torcheculs, arsewisps, bumfodders, tail-napkins, bunghole cleansers, and wipe-breeches, there is none in the world comparable to the neck of a goose, that is well downed, if you hold her head betwixt your legs. And believe me therein upon mine honour, for you will thereby feel in your nockhole a most wonderful pleasure, both in regard of the softness of the said down and of the temporate heat of the goose, which is easily communicated to the bum-gut and the rest the inwards, in so far as to come even to the regions of the heart and brains."

And on a more serious note.
I am told by the locals that if you ask at the butcher counter in superstore they will get one for you (havn't tried it yet though). Another place to try may be the butchers on Main Street (Wright Brothers I think it's called).
