Hi Everyone,

Peter's idea is certainly true of 'Gary and Molly' the two domestic geese
who were 'given' to the people of Isabella Plains by someone who dumped them
on the doorstep of the house closest to the water. The people along the
street they inhabit have become quite protective of them, partially because
there can only ever be Gary and Molly down there as they are somehow unable
to breed.
