His exploits as a soldier on the peripherals of the war are a fascinating read, and in parts highly amusing.
Jim is now 90 years old, living in Sunningdale with his wife Jennifer. He has had a wonderfully varied and successful working life. From his early days in Fleet Street, (his writing skills are evident throughout this book), to owning his own hardware shop in Kensington High Street, and then finally setting up his main business, spanning forty years, as the sole uk importer of Ignis ice-making machines from Italy.weniger sehen
