Most homes are sold with “fixtures and fittings included” but not many come with a resident goose called Gary as part of the deal.
But, if you take a gander at stories about the market town of March, in Cambridgeshire, you will become aware that a free-roaming gaggle of geese is part of the local landscape.
Perhaps the most infamous of the white-feathered flock is Gary, dubbed a “bit anti-social”, who decided Taffy Stevens’ riverside garden would be his new home.
Stevens, who is selling his house, is telling potential buyers that Gary is likely to be part of the overall deal, adding: “This is his home, too.”
