I only found out today that good old Sir James died a few days ago. Nearly 85 years old. He did so much for charity. Bless his soul.

Apparently, he wants to be buried at 45 degrees so he can still see the sea...

Yep, good ol Jim, he never did fix it for me despite the letters, but I loved the show !!

RIP.

(d'ya reckon his last words were 'nowthen, nowthen, nowthen')

Oh go on Laz, if you tell me what you're letter to Jim was about, I'll tell you mine.........

HAHHAHAHAHAH, that's brilliant. I can picture him, just from those three words.

LOL, I honestly can't remember, I wrote a few !! It was one of those exorcises our mum suggested every now and then .... basically to keep us occupied for a short while so she could get some peace and quiet, hehehe.

Doubtlessly a helicopter ride was a prominant theme, but nothing particularly original .... which is why I never made the cut I guess.

Hee hee. Mine was totally original, very bizarre and I've no idea where it came from....except 'out of the blue'.

I only had one wish. I think I may have sent just the one letter in...but like yours, it may have never actually been posted.

I wanted to wash, polish and sparkle a filthy red London bus.

Seriously.

I'd never been to London, had lived in the north all my life (I was probably around 7 years old) but that's what I wanted Jim to fix for me.

I think I've been bonkers for many more years than at first thought.......hahahahha.

LOLOLOL, thats really is quite bonkers Squatch !!, but at least totally original.

..... I'm kinda surprised You didn't get picked (assuming letter got posted) just for being so bizarre ???,

although not sure how entertaining it would have been for the viewers, watching You scrub a bus hehehe. Yeah that could be it.

I'm still chuckling actually, Mine involved flying in helicopters, My sister's always revolved around meeting her heart-throb movie star 'Sean Astin', I remember now ............. and You wanted to scrub a bus !!!! lol. Fantastic.
