Wild Goose Chasing

Wheel, I've not yet  : " gone over a crag on a flawed rope after some scabby sheep " ( GMB ) but I have spent the morning on a wild goose chase, having discovered last night my purse gone ( dam and blast ). This Egyptian Goose was making a great racket atop some some building and made me laugh. Must be spring on the way.  So I've done the necessary at the bank, then retraced Mondays steps : nothing. So I'll start the task of getting a load of new plastic. The purse is an old treasure Andy made me 30 years ago, so I'll wait a bit before replacing it.
