A note from the editor

So now the hangover from the end of the noughties has officially subsided it’s time to start 2010 (MMX) or 5770 if you follow the Hebrew calendar and a new decade.
But the big debate is do we called it twenty ten or two thousand and ten? According to the Vancouver olympic committee it’s the former until we get to 2011 when two thousand and eleven sounds better. Another question is what do we call the new decade? the teenies sounds like a cbeebies program so maybe a word like 'Roaring 20s' for the 1920s, would help. Personally I’m copyrighting the term “tumultuous ten’s” as, if nothing else, it sounds good.
Maybe it should be called 2010- the decade that Courchevel finally pulls it finger out and instead of kissing a select few Russian asses starts supporting the mass English holiday maker market. Who am I kidding.... Seriously I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year, may it be better than 2009 and may all your dreams come a little closer.
