Geocache Description:

Twenty Fifth in a series of random caches all named after albums from My Record Collection and in no particular order.
There will be no nano's in this series, they will always be in or near to a tree and they will be very close to a road so an easy cache and dash.


Released back in 1979 this is the punk band Sham 69's third and most sucessful album even though the music critics slammed the album it ended up with one of the bands most iconic tracks "Hersham Boys"  an album and track as a 16yr old i played to death.

The band allegedly derived their name from a piece of graffiti that founder Jimmy Pursey saw on a wall. It originally saidWalton and Hersham '69 but had partly faded away, and made reference to when Walton & Hersham F.C. secured theAthenian League title in 1969
