mutterman – he is the eggman

There is a quite amusing, if very English, wrap up of the year’s cricket online here. The highlight is undoubtedly letter E:

More comforting for British fans, though, was the knowledge that there were now two such people in the world. Previously we had thought there was only one, a notorious wicketkeeper who wore the same floppy cap every day for 20 years, ate Weetabix only if it had been soaked in milk for 12 minutes and blindfolded people who wanted to visit his house. Are there many others still at large?
