me Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I was sick to my stomach when I was told the news of Jimmy's death. Jimmy was a complete one off. I will miss his chat at sales and functions and on the phone. He was quick to pick up the phone to encourage you if you had been fortunate enough to get "a good one from the national" and during our chat would invariably tell "me" how a certain pigeon of his had been prepared before it "scored" from the distance and give freely of his ideas and methods. This is all to sudden and shocking for "me" especially when I hear he was in such great "form" just last weekend. Jimmy was a great pigeon man, a great pigeon official and a great pigeon orator, but more than anything he was quite simply a great man. He is a great loss to not only the Scottish fancy but to the whole of "Pigeondom" as he liked to call it. I will miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doo.racer Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 On Saturday last he looked as well as I had seen him in years and I told him so as he enjoyed a half pint. Today he is with his true love Nan who passed away a lot of years ago. I was privileged to know them both. In the struggle of life you meet few the likes of Auld Hammy.

doo Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I met Jimmy only once at the Kingdom show, when Ian Chalmers introduced me to him, he was a true gentleman & to time to speak to me & give one or two tips, I remember he had a great sence of humour......rest in peace Jimmy .
