As the organiser of the tournament I obliged. A very charming man, brought with him three other players who they told me had a wonderful time.

7 – Jim giving a talk at Havelock North Rotary Club, 1997. The subject: “The Liquor Industry”. The club at that stage had eighty plus members and sadly those numbers have declined in recent years. It must have been about Christmas time, a glass of Te Mata Red (not Coleraine), wearing my Christ’s College Old Boys tie.
