Another odd occurance... Thanks dad.

Over the last year or so both me and my mum have seen some odd things occur where they instantly remind us of my dad... And in all honestly sometimes its so strange I end up thinking its my dad causing it to happen.
Both of us have some even stanger odd occurances than the below.. But this one is "print" screenable...

Basically I have spent best part of 6months working on some functionality that tracks every track played on our jukeboxs and scrobbles them to last.fm. we keep a seperate account for just scrobbled background music. For the most part this plays totally random music from a caterlog that runs into the millions.

The screen shot below shows the top played background tracks over the last seven days...
For the most part the top tracks have been played 4 times.
But the number one spot has taken the place of one of my dads favourite  artists Chicane with a total play of 7 times. Even more harrowing is the track title "Lost you somewhere"

vhub- biggest day yet in my career.

I'm writing this on the train down to London. This week the vhub, a jukebox I have been heavily involved with the development of had its unveiling to the public at the industrys main event. The eag EXPO. It's been a big week for sound leisure who I work for. But for me It's what I've been chasing for a long time, a chance to show I can run with the best of them. At school and for the most part of my career It's been a struggle. A struggle to get to where i am, a struggle to understand and learn about the industry Im in .. web/it/programing. But this is proof to myself that I am capable.
so sad that I haven't been able to share this week with my dad that died a year yesterday. One of the few who understood and saw the struggles in the career I chose. But like he said many years ago now.... things turn out alright in the end.
