That's true! I'm born and raised in Denmark, lived there for 35 years.
Then some 16 years ago, I had to up and leave. Settled in Sweden. Next door neighbour to Denmark and quite a similar language (although Danes and Swedes alike will probably disagree).
Now, when I listen to Danish television or read Danish newspapers, there are actually words and sentences I don't understand! 
Mind you, the Danes have always been much more creative with the language than the Swedes...

I don't mean to be a spoilsport, but rumour has it that Shakespeare wasn't that bright and really didn't write all the plays himself. 
So my question is: Are they sure that there actually WAS a head to begin with???

You see, isn't it a coincidence how all my posts seem to relate to each other today??? Thanks for reminding me.
Personally, I'm leaning more towards Oxford, though!

Not a real answer..but with the clue you reminded me of a joke/pun.
A knight is thinking this to himself:
"I gained a little weight, now all the peasants call me Sir Cumference."
