Another constant that is no more. Can't be many of 'em left now. Brucie; that's about it.

Best obituary I've seen yet, from the Yorkshire Post
Sir Jim’s earnings were substantial and he owned at least eight homes, including flats in Regent’s Park, Bournemouth, Leeds and Scarborough. Among his six cars were a Bentley Turbo, a Mercedes 500 SL and a flashy Rolls-Royce.
He was a paid consultant to travel agent Thomas Cook and charged a minimum of £10,000 for personal appearances. His British Rail “Age of the train” advertisements in 1984 brought in around £500,000.
But Sir Jimmy gave away nine-tenths of his income to two charitable trusts and in the later part of his career, he became more famous for his charity fund-raising and work as a voluntary helper at Stoke Mandeville, Leeds Infirmary and Broadmoor.
