    Hi Jim, What a fantastic website. I really enjoyed looking through your Motown memories, especially with The Supremes. Loved your acting videos and listening to your recordings too, such a beautiful
    voice. Thank you for sharing your life with us all.
    Much love Jamie and Bob.

  • James Odom (Sunday, September 06 15 12:32 am BST)

    Became aware of your name through research on Cindy Birdsong. She wrote letters and sent information to my students back in the 1980s. I took my student council officers to see her at the Jim and
    Tammy Bakker television show. I enjoyed your web site it brings back great memories.

  • Colin hough (Friday, August 07 15 07:49 pm BST)

    Dear Jim,

    I sincerely hope you don't mind but I have enjoyed browsing through the wonderful photographs of your flying career. What a marvellous personal archive and treasury of happy memories with the World's
    Favourite. I have similarly handed in my wings after twenty years service in the air, but cannot claim to have such a detailed photographic record with which to look back on my career. So, well done,
    and wishing you every success in future ventures.

  • Paul britton (Thursday, February 12 15 11:30 pm GMT)

    Great site, what a great supremes fan you are...I saw them in 1989 in Swansea on the motor city tour....never forget that night.

    I was looking up some old archives in the internet about BOAC when I came across your site which I truly enjoyed. Please accept my apologies for stopping by and looking at your photos.The airline
    world was a very magic industry to work in and I must congratulate you on your very interesting portrait of your fascinating life.
    I've been living in Switzerland for 37 years and I have had the privilege to work for JAL
    and run my own travel business and theatre company. I am also a fan of the Supremes and Motown :))) My very best wishes to you Jim. Adrian

  • Lloyd Cooke (Monday, November 18 13 09:28 am GMT)

    Hi Jim, you won't remember me from Jumbos in the 70s and Shorthaul in the 80s/90s etc. Just wanted to congratulate you on producing a great website, I loved all of the flying photos and other
    memories. Hope you're keeping well, say "hello" to Fiona.

  • Richard Masters (Sunday, September 15 13 04:44 pm BST)

    Hi Jim. Your photos brought back a few memories. I stumbled across your site whilst looking for photos of the old Tristar House, which came into use during my time with BA (1975 - 1982). I was on the
    747 (White) fleet and appeared on rosters as Graham Masters (aka Rick) I still have my rosters, so I'll have to do a search for your name. I left to become an accountant (yawn). Sadly, have yet to
    find any photos of Tristar House. Regards, Rick

  • Richard Masters (Sunday, September 15 13 04:36 pm BST)

    Hi Jim,
    This is all very interesting. I was drawn to your site whilst looking for any photos of the old Tristar House which came into use during my time with BA (1975 - 1982)
    I was on the 747 (white)fleet and appeared on rosters as Graham Masters (Rick) and made Steward 1 before leaving to become an accountant.
    Your photos brought back many memories. Thanks.
    Still can't find any shots of Tristar House, though!
    All the best
    Rick

  • Howard Carver (Tuesday, May 28 13 12:37 am BST)

    Wow Jim! What an EXCELLENT site you have! I just happened to run across it searching for more information on the late Ronnie Pereira. I'm very impressed with your background and involvement with
    Motown in the UK. I have always also been a Motown junkie, ever since my youth when I got the bug in mid-1960s. My online name is MotownLover on the Motown forum at www.soulfuldetroit.com. You are
    truly blessed in so many ways. Best wishes to you and your future enjoyment in your retirement years.

  • Sharon Davis (Sunday, May 12 13 10:56 am BST)

  • Joe Frame (Thursday, December 13 12 12:37 pm GMT)

    Hi Jim,

    I came across you website on the retired BA crew website run by Mark (Hardy,) and spent a very enjoyable hour having a look through it. Where has all the time gone eh? I have been retired since 2000
    and am now nearer 70 than 60, but I`m still fit and well and busy as ever running two development companies. You still look as fit as a fiddle and appear to have a happy and busy life. Anyhoo Jim, it
    was great seeing some old familiar faces on your website which definitely stirred some very happy memories for me, happy daze indeed. good luck and I wish you have a very merry Chrismas and a
    prosperous and health 2013.

    Very kind regards,

    Joe Frame, (CSD)Retired.

  • Keith Hughes (Tuesday, October 09 12 05:03 pm BST)

    Hi, Jim,
    Yesterday an unusual event happened that led me to your web page. While enjoying a bicycle ride along the beach here in sunny SoCal, “Ron Pereira” came into my thoughts so strong, it was as if I had
    passed him on the bike path. Fond memories from long ago came flooding back of Ron and Bruce. Ron’s voice started echoing the long forgotten nickname he’d coined for me 25 years ago, ringing
    repeatedly until I rushed home to Google Ron and Bruce.
    I was stunned and saddened when a trail of web links led me to Ron’s memorial tribute video you had posted here.
    Yesterday’s date was significant to Ron and Bruce, as well as those who attended Ron’s Memorial Service.
    I am certain you wouldn't remember meeting me, as I was painfully shy and awkward in my young days, but Bruce, Ron, you, and Peter… without question are among the most admirable and kindest people I
    ever met along my life journey. I wish so much that my life path would have afforded me the chance to have been closer to you all and experienced your friendships from the inside and for a lifetime.
    Ron and Bruce literally changed my life forever and I have always been and always will be so grateful for the privilege of having met you all, albeit ever too briefly.
    May all life’s best be with you all. You are one of the reasons I believe in angels.
    Keith
