The JCB song

So I'm sitting in Jamie's Italian in Brisbane. Already a coincidence as occurred as soon as I walked in when the girl showing to my seat asked if I'd been before. When I replied 'Not to this one but another one' she asked 'one in the UK?'  As I nodded she responded 'The Birmingham one?' Out of all the Jamie's Italians on the other side if the world, she'd picked the correct one!  

Now I've been here over an hour and I've been happily reading my book, on a couple of occasions, momentarily thinking I like the song choice but on the whole I've been absorbed in my book. I've just paid my bill and was finishing my current chapter when the JCB song came on. If you've not heard it, it was Christmas number 1 in the UK in 2005 and the lead singer is Luke Concanon. As a teenager I spent a New Year's Eve and a good friend Marcy's and her nephew, Luke came a sang. Now all these years later I hear his hit in a restaurant on the other side of the world! Needless to say I couldn't concentrate on my book while the song played!
