I don't actually mind the taste of duck so long as it comes with a bit of orange sauce, and I don't think too much about what I'm actually eating

YAY im so excited ive booked my mum to babysit and im off with the boys aside from the sore shoulder from the shotgun (im not very heavy so i really get thrown back by it) i love it!!! I love duck as well. We only go opening weekend and im really not into killing things but make an exception once a year so i just think about the end cooked result instead as i fire or let the boys shoot the ducks and i shoot the empty bottles

Yeah I am not a fan of duck either - tho DH is going to breast some this year, and I will try cooking just them... He prefers it when his mum cooks them anyway!
I just don't get the excitement thing!
