Jim's presented just about all the programmes on Mercia at
one time or
another including voicing commercials.
His first programme to host was the 'From me to you' on Sunday
lunchtime between 12.00 - 2.00. He also filled in as and when
presenters took holidays.
As Mercia Sound celebrated 2 years of success Jim wrote:
"it's just two years now since Ian Rufus found me in the
Walsgrave
Hospital. So far I've survived all attempts to put me back
in there.!
For the sake of 'my art' I've flown in gliders until I was
sick, hurtled
round a treelined dirt track sideways at 70mph with Henri Toivenon
and even worked alongside Gordon Astley. I've loved every minute
of it - well... afterwards I did!
Having been born in Nuneaton it gives me extra special satisfaction
working for our local radio station."
