Spring clean

You may have noticed that there hasn't been much new on here of late. I could go with the usual excuses (too much work, not enough real news, etc.), but you've heard them all before, so I thought I would try out a new one: the reason there haven't been any posts lately is because the blog's stately-but-slightly-depressing dark-blue colour-scheme was hampering my creativity.

So, as you can see, I've gone for something a little lighter and more airy (for now, at least) in the hope that it will rescue the blog from the Bergman-esque depths and send it off on its merry way towards a brand-new season of baseball.
