Dear Sir. Why, oh why…

There was a cricket-themed letter in the Daily Telegraph last week. I haven’t found it online, so have reprinted it here in full.

SIR - Why do some of the England cricketers not shave on match days?
Gillian Johnson
Lodsworth, West Sussex

That was it – the entire letter. In a week that saw the World Cup come alive, in a week that Ireland beat England, and England tied with India, in a week of hat-tricks and hundreds, all Gillian Johnson from Lodsworth, West Sussex could think to write about was shaving.

It’s so pathetic, it’s brilliant.
