Also what was your favourite sporting moment in a year largely bereft of glory?

I think the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko was really important. If a man can be poisoned so easily with radioactive polonium 210 on our shores, in our restaurants/hotels what else is going on that we don't hear about? What politics are involved, and what danger is Russia to us and the rest of the world if they truly did do the deed.
My favourite sporting moment was turning off the telly in disgust at our horrendous performances... I had many such moments this year

The most important news event of 2006 was my retirement on 20th November 2006. Hurrah!

Ignore the celebrity news ... that doesn't last. I'd say it's to do with the Korean nuclear issue. That one is very worrying and has enormous consequences for the future. We should keek an eye on the Korean and Chinese news on this stuff.
