NB: The only other Australian to go into print about 2009 has been Gideon Haigh, another terrific writer. The England side of the ledger stands at Andrew Strauss, Andrew Flintoff, The England Team's Official Story, Stuart Broad, Mike Atherton, the official DVD and the back end of Michael Vaughan's autobiography. Not that the market is dictated by who won at all...

Confessions of a man insane enough to live with beasts...
Jarrod Kimber is not a normal Australian. He doesn't live in Australia. He honours a non-Australian idol. He does un-Australian things, like write a book about the 2009 Ashes. For those reasons alone, it would be worth reading but I suspect it will be funny, too, and not just about Mitchell Johnson.

Gideon was actually born in England.
I didn't know that. I'm sure you'll want to claim him though - the best writer on cricket at the moment.
We'll claim him; you claim Peter André.
...and Darren Pattinson.
Headline of the week, if not the year.
Well done!
I'd love to claim it, but it's one of Bukowski's - he has all the best titles...
Hence my award of the accolade. Sometimes the perfect headline just fits.
I'm still waiting for an opportunity to use 'Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict'
Could be a long wait...
