The Poms

Another reason to rubbish the Poms


If this doesn't spark the Aussie cricketers into action, nothing will (well, going 1-0 down might have...)
Australia's own airline Qantas has joined forces with UK travel agents to promote cheap airfares, using Ricky Ponting's team's demise at Lord's as the punchline.
"Hurry! Once (these tickets) are gone they're gone - a bit like the Aussie Ashes hopes," one website says.
STA Travel is flogging return London-Sydney fares for £215 ($432) - one pound for every run scored in Australia's "rather paltry" first innings total.
The agent says the fares are "to celebrate the epic Aussie demise".
