Every day last year I drew a portrait of someone on their birthday using my non dominant left hand to help maintain brain function and to see how much I improved. I’m not an artist.

Every now and then I remember that my oh-so straight and conservative dad was rather fond of Sham 69. And it’s easy to see why. Great songs, played brilliantly and one of the all time greatest frontmen. Blimey, I’ve just realised I’m rather fond, too! #Sham69 #JimmyPursey
