Since everyone’s doing their Live Aid memories, I feel that I should share this from the pages of Just Seventeen - my wife’s experiences, umm, backstage, as it were…

Just done the #saucony10k through central London. Love a 10k, love London. Don’t care what the haters say, it’s the best city in the world! Added bonus - my wonderful stepdaughter Anna ran it too

We bought our house 18 years ago, and a lot of the garden was overgrown with ivy. Last summer I cleared a whole load of it away, and found a very mature clematis underneath. This spring it’s flowered for what must be the first time in over 20 years, maybe 25. And it’s amazing!

The 700th Grovelands Parkrun. Loads of Enfield Chasers today. And the fastest time of the year so far for me

The drumming on this album - one of the best punk/new wave works ever released - is phenomenal. Controlled, powerful aggression. Rick Buckler was a genius. The Jam wouldn’t have been The Jam without him. RIP Rick

Just awful news. Rick Buckler’s drums were the rhythm of the soundtrack of my teenage years. I have loved and adored The Jam all my life. Can’t begin to say how sad this makes me. RIP Rick
