Boy have we got something to teach you citizens of other countries when you start arriving here this week for the Hadrians Walk – starting with humour – if you don’t “get” the recently deceased Frank Sidebottom then maybe you’ve come to the wrong country.

I loved Frank Sidebottom.
Poor little Frank, he’ll be very lonely.
He should team up with Emu and Lord Charles, they’re both at a loose end at the moment.
It’s such a shame Chris Sievey died. My grandparents have lived in Timperley for most of their lives and it’s just a quick 10 minute car journey for me, so the character of Frank is somewhat close to me (literally).
I created a little illustration to commemorate his passing
RIP Chris/Frank Timperley, and Manchester, won’t be the same without you..
