An Apology

Sorry, this blog never really got going did it? Well, it got going and then it stopped. And didn't start again. The reason for this is fairly simple. The Strauss v Ponting Twitter account. It was not as much hard work, proved pretty popular and was great for banter. So I kind of got stuck on there.

Yesterday I announced Strauss v Ponting was going on holiday until November 2010, but then I was inundated with at least four desperate pleas for it to continue. This couldn't happen on the basis that I do not have the power to move the Ashes series. We came to a compromise though. @SirStraussy was born. He'll be tweeting until he retires. Or until Graeme Swann gets involved and suggests someone is 'posing' as him. Which happened tonight.
