			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All I can say is WOW ! (and Thank You)</p>
<p>I have been watching and voting in <a href="http://vsphere-land.com/news/the-top-blog-full-voting-results.html">Eric&#8217;s polls</a> since I started in virtualisation and never ever expected to see my name up there in lights, and in the top 10 too !</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone who voted for me, I really really appreciate it, this is exactly the reason I write my scripts and do not charge for them (despite pressure to do so) I could not believe it when I was told about this Sunday night, I think I am still dancing around in my head (not suitable in the office).</p>
<p>Congratulations to all other people mentioned in <a href="http://vsphere-land.com/news/the-top-blog-full-voting-results.html">the top Virtualisation blogs</a> and especially to Duncan of <a href="http://www.yellow-bricks.com/">Yellow-Bricks.com</a> for taking the Number 1 slot again, very well deserved too !</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I wasn&#8217;t going to do a 2010 post but its looking like its going to be a great year for me, already so far I have seen two things which have totally astounded me…</p>
<p><strong>Firstly </strong>I was mentioned as one of the “Top 5 Planet V12n bloggers 2009” something which leaves me totally flabbergasted, I really cant believe it !  I can think of far more worthy bloggers than little old me ! – Thanks very Much !</p>
<p><span id="more-1256"></span>Check it out here: <a href="http://blogs.vmware.com/vmtn/2010/01/top-5-planet-v12n-blog-posts-2009.html">http://blogs.vmware.com/vmtn/2010/01/top-5-planet-v12n-blog-posts-2009.html</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.virtu-al.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/image.png"><img style="display: inline; border: 0px;" title="image" src="http://www.virtu-al.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/image_thumb.png" border="0" alt="image" width="573" height="163" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Secondly</strong> I have made it onto the voting list for “The Top VMware/Virtualization blogs” survey of 2009, I remember filling this in last year thinking I could only aspire to be half as good as the guys mentioned on this list – again WOW !</p>
<p><a href="http://www.virtu-al.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/image1.png"><img style="display: inline; border: 0px;" title="image" src="http://www.virtu-al.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/image_thumb1.png" border="0" alt="image" width="260" height="67" /></a></p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t voted as yet then make sure you do, this isn&#8217;t a plea for you to vote for me but more to let you know you can win a complete TrainSignal vSphere training kit just by entering, and its a great kit, I recently used this kit and mainly the MP3s to study for my VCP4 (which I passed).  Make sure you enter for your chance to win here:</p>

<p>I am now looking forward to 2010, with a start like this I am not sure how things will get any better though….. I&#8217;m off to buy a lottery ticket !</p>
<p>P.S. Hope you like the new blog theme.</p>
