I quit my day job, on a more positive note though I’m really excited to have time to make more art again. And post on here a bit more.

@MahnazHashmi Fabulous!

A friend just sent me this 1962 nurse training video from All Saints Hospital, the old asylum in Birmingham. That’s my dapper, lovely dad on the left - smashing glass ceilings back in the day as one of the first Asian consultant psychiatrists in the NHS. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farrukh_S…

Twitter, I need your help! My mum broke her favourite mug and it has a lot of sentimental value, I've Googled and Googled but can't find anything. Does anyone know of this pattern and if I might be able to buy her another one? Please RT many thanks 😊
