Do less at work

Read the Guardian’s over-by-over Ashes coverage.

Intimate, informal and current - great web writing. This is their desciption of Warne’s wicket last Sunday:

WICKET! Australia 220-9 (Warne hit wicket b Flintoff 42)
Freddie does it again, albeit in bizarre circumstances. Flintoff speared a swinging yorker in towards Shane Warne’s leg stump, it missed by quite a way, but Warne did a Cruyff turn on his off stump and sent it flying. You couldn’t make it up, and luckily you don’t have to. Priceless slapstick.

(There’s two types of writing. Know which you’re about.)
