Hello Itsmee,
I burst out in laughing... 😀
We also have these 'animals' in Germany who are forced to live in one direction
around the hill / mountain.

Hi cubicincher,
I'm glad it made someone laugh. What's the animal called - is it a cousin of the Haggis?
There is something Iv'e been curious about for the last 20 odd years; I was in Erlangen on a Siemens training course, one lunch time I saw what looked like an up-turned white blancmange on a plate, I asked if it was a main dish or a desert, the answer I got was 'yes'. I don't know if it was a dish local to the region, any idea what this stuff might be?

Don't forget the cucumber sandwiches, and scones for later

All of these hill orienteering types are the same animal but with national differences. They have shorter legs on the uphill side.
When on a visit to the Faroe Islands, where the mountains are steep and not much flat ground, I told my children that there were two distinct breeds of sheep on the islands. And that these two could not interbreed. One breed had short legs on the right side and the other had short legs on the left side. They tried to spot which was which on the whole trip and even came up with some mutations, the up and down sheep 😀 😀

Hello Itsmee,
in Germany we have the 'Hang-Hühner' (german) in english it would mean
'hill-hens'. We don't have to hunt them anymore - because they live on farms...
and have been domesticated...🙄
The turned up 'blancmange'? You have been to Erlangen - that is the region
'Franconia' ('Franken' in german). I am thinking about what is a typical dish for that region that could look like a blancmange?
Could it have been `mashed potatoes´ brought into a special nice looking form?
Perhaps a kind of `german potato dumplings``?
If it was something sweet (desert), then I would assume a kind of `semolina
porridge`stiffed and turned upside down out of a form? Or a pudding?

Hi cubicincher,
It defiantly wasn't potato, maybe it was a savoury blancmange, I just thought it a bit odd serving a pudding for a main meal
I wonder if the 'Hang-Hühner' is related to a bird with asymmetrical wings; it fly's in ever decreasing circles until it diapers up it's own bum 😀

In the mountain areas "they" made the kids chase them and probably had a lot of fun watching them while drinking adult beverages...
The very last bagpipe type which I shot was skinned and the skin cured....it was rolled up in and left a store room until my wife - who is far more artistic than am I - had an old armchair covered with the skin...I'll find a pic and post
I invented Papaland's Stupidity Unit today
