Carruthers is a good egg.







Sidestep: Many years ago, when I was young and stupid and most of my friends were drug dealers and oddballs, 'good egg' was the highest compliment that could be paid to anyone. Always used to make me smile that. When Nutty Paul (I'm not being bitchy, that was how he was known by all and to his face) a man seemingly carved from granite and graffitied with self-applied tattoos, would say in all seriousness, in his thick Bolton accent that this or that person was a good egg.
