Today is a sad day for football fans the world over and especially for Preston North End fans as it is the funeral of Prestons' son - Sir Tom Finney.
My father and uncle knew him, I didn't although I did knock on his door collecting for charity or something when I was 11 - nobody home though!!!
He is known as a fabulous footballer and an honourable gentleman - a lovely man.
Preston city centre is practically closed this morning as the funeral cortege will travel from North End to St.John's Minster for the funeral service.
I've been listening to people (famous and unknown) talk about him on the local radio station BBC Lancashire and it does make you feel so humble knowing how many thousands and thousands of people think so highly of this one man. He makes Preston very proud.
However, onto business.
This cutie is for the challenge at All Dressed Up - #9 - Follow a Sketch.
She is coloured with Spectrum Noir pens and I think she's lovely!
