Flummoxed again eh?

http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/play+a+blinder

Note I said:

" ee's been playing a blinder (i.e. very well & very sneakily)."

& the dictionary say....

"play a blinder (British, informal) to perform with a lot of skill,
especially when you are playing sport. He's played a blinder in every game
so far this season. "
