Liverpool, McCall and Guardian.co.uk – a triple result
A rather spectacular set of results last night.
First Liverpool beating Arsenal 4-2. Yes, I am at best an armchair supporter (in fact more of a listen to the radio in the kitchen supporter, to be honest) but it’s always good to see the team I grew up with snaffling something valuable from Arsenal.
Next, my boss – Carolyn McCall, was named Veuve Clicquot Business Woman of the Year. This is much deserved, of course. In fact, my only surprise is that she hasn’t won it sooner
.
Finally, Guardian.co.uk, having pulled in a stash of Webby Nominations during the day, was last night named Website of the Year at the British Press Awards – congratulations to all the team there, in particular Sean Smith who won online journalist of the year.
We won that award incidentally the last time it was held – I think in 2000 – against the BBC. I picked up many awards before and after with what was Guardian Unlimited, but that was probably the sweetest. Nothing beats success in front of your peer group.
