No complicated quizzes, but you can have my daily interest if you make me laugh. Again must be cricket related (however tenuous).

How much is that? I hear you ask, well I'm not super rich like some. But I make a tidy sum, is it worth it? I guess that's up to you!

I'll have a crack at that one Kev. Found this gem in a book of cricket quotes:

Found carved on an English gravestone:

As in life so in death lies
a bat of renown,
Slain by a lorry (3 ton)
His innings is over, his
bat is laid down;
To the end a poor judge of a run.

"Butcher plays this off the black foot." - Brian Johnston, BBC

"Cricket is the easiest sport in the world to take over. Nobody bothered to pay the players what they were worth." - Kerry Packer in 1977.

"I've seen batting all over the world. And in other countries, too." - Keith Miller

"Yorkshire all out 232, Hutton ill! I'm sorry.Hutton 111" - BBC news announcer

Ok both freddies win. Even though I've used the last freddiw quote in my sig before!

I guess I'm double my vcash interest out of pocket

[Highlander999]

I would if it hadn't been for me losing the cash Colin sent me for my other correct guess. Made 100K as well and then got too greedy :
