I Agree Anna, but had to take Grandchildren to the Great Orme (plenty of sheep running all over the place) to prove you did not get green ones, only White, Black & Brown (or had that just been rolling about).
God knows what their teacher will say now Ive convinced them of right colours. Oooops. Detention for me I feel.

That's right mess with the childrens heads, first time out in the country they'll be asking where the multicoloured sheep are. Look darling there are light coloured ones and dark coloured ones. You try calling a black person coloured and see just how far you get.
To Whoever. Take your Poltical Correctness and stick it up your, you know what.
The whole thing makes my blood boil. Utterly pathetic state of affairs. /

It's generally a supportive saying, roughly saying 'get in there, don't hold back, I'm right behind you, large (as in tall, or round, or status) bloke.

You'll hear it often at footballs grounds when either a player is going for goal or has just made an excellent tackle and take the ball off the oppostition. GAUN YERSEL BIG YIN'!
