Bert Fegg is well named as in Bert Fegg's Nasty Book For Boys and Girls, compiled by a couple of the Monty Python crew...but, "Bert" that was a joke, you know, funny..HA HA!
"In days of old when knights were bold praties would have been stored in a hole in the ground. So an inquisitive gander may well have found an uncovered hole and gone in for a feed. I know farm creatures are good at getting where they didn't ought to be!"
