    She nonchalantly replied,"Them Tory papers cost a fortune but this was only 30p in the charity shop next door so shut your puss and put it outside please."

    True story and the texture was lovely to be fair.

    And great fun blethering to the Dode Fox podcast lads, Ronny and Paul. Braw lads, and providing an Arab rallying point in these times when we can't physically get to games.
    Thanks lastly to the Arabs who emailed or wrote in with memories of Jim, many of them very surprising.
    Jim more than any other single person made us what we are . . . and we are some club, we are The World Famous.
    I listened to the Dode Fox podcast, I loved your passion for wee J.Y.M. and the club. I have requested the book from my young lad for my birthday. It should be winging its way across the Atlantic soon. I’m looking forward to reading about Jim’s warmer side which I experienced first hand during my young lads time as mascot back in the day.

    Don’t stop doing what you are doing!

    I know I've said I'll shut up, but I need to share this with people who I hope will appreciate the magnitude of it.
    I spoke on the phone to Doris today, Jim's wife, she is thankfully keeping well in these troubled times. She likes the book and said she has ordered two copies of it to give to his brothers, Willie and Tommy, as birthday presents.
    Jim McLean's wife is giving my book to Jim McLean's brothers!

    Never been so proud in my entire life!
