Well it's here, Today is Friday 1st January 2016 and I would like to say Happy New Year. As is tradition this is the time to reflect on what you did 10 years ago and this year that falls on 2006, but before we do that lets reflect on what was going on in 2006 and it's highs and lows.
In January, a whale was spotted in the thames causing a rescue operation with crowds forming to track the progress. The whale sadly died. In February, a ferry sank in the red sea sparking a massive rescue operation. In March, Gary Glitter was jailed in Vietnam for sexually abusing two young girls. In April, John Prescott had an affair with one of his secretaries. In May, After poor results in the local elections Tony Blair sacked Charles Clark as home secretary. In June, an anti-terror operation involving 250 officers saw the shooting of a 23 year old man. No evidence of terror connection was ever found and the police later apoligied. In July, temperatures across the UK were high reaching 36.5 degrees celius in Surrey becoming the hottest day on record. In August, the threat of terror dominated the news when police said they foiled a plot to bring down ten planes, also in August the story of Natasha Kampusch makes headlines worldwide after she had been kidnappped and kept in a basment for eight years.
