Definitely not just you. I got one and loathed it so much I returned it.

Oh good. I'm so pleased you've joined and paid a hansome tax fee.

Morning all ...

Would this little dude be acceptable tax?

The geese.
These have been one of the problems in getting anyone to do much more than chuck feed at the chickens and geese and run.
Yes, they do swear a lot, even by my standards and yes, if you get a nip it does hurt.
However, they are domestic geese and are very unlikely to attack with beak feet and wings as feral geese will. There were feral geese on my uncles farm when I was a lad and you needed to keep a very close eye on them.
I have no idea why the geese are here. They eat at least 200grams of feed a day each, that's a straight kilo for these five, they are very messy and don't do a lot.

My tax, and some extra, since I think I'm behind...

They might be awaiting their turn to serve as Christmas dinners?

Who bit off his points? Is this a new way to deduct tax?
