After the September 19th 2008 incident and an intense year of recovery, consolidation and testing, LHC beam commissioning started again on the 23rd November 2009 and continued for three and a half weeks before the annual Christmas stop. A summary of the progress made and the performance of the individual accelerator systems is given. The potential performance of 2010 is discussed.
