Peter...please do not take this as a threat! http://www.lookandlearn.com/blog/8819/common-fallacies-ostriches-bury-their-heads-in-sand/ "When someone refuses to face up to some unpleasant reality in the hope that it will go away, we often say that they are “burying their heads in the sand” or behaving “ostrich-fashion”. Such a statement is very unfair to ostriches. They wouldn’t dream of burying their heads in the sand in the mistaken belief that what they can’t see, can’t see them. In fact what an ostrich does do is to stretch its long neck along the ground so that it can size up a potentially dangerous situation. From a distance, it can appear that the ostrich has buried its head in the ground. Once the ostrich has made up its mind, however, it can move at tremendous speed on powerful legs, which are capable of carrying it at speeds of up to 70 km/h. Those same legs are also capable of delivering an extremely unpleasant kick – so whatever you do, never underestimate an ostrich."
Fair play and I must also apologize, it always baffled me why we had a mod called Tranmere Rovers. That's my dyslexia getting the better of me...
Lol. That reminds me of a story my Father-in -Law told me about when he was playing for Middlesborough. He was Captain that day and the ref was telling him to back off from a bit of handbags that was going on. The ref told him to f..k off and Frank said, "you can't talk to me that way...I'm the ****ing Kipper". Apparently the stick he took for that little slip of the tongue was relentless.
