" Many years ago our daughter Alison came to Oxford to study, and like some students, was quite severely homesick.  One day my late wife Janet, who was in the same year as Jimmy at St Andrews, and I, were in Oxford and Jimmy recognised us and we chatted;  Alison's problem was mentioned. The outcome was that at weekends she had tea with your family and spent some time studying and relaxing in the company of the girls.  Her problem gradually resolved and we have always been so grateful to Jimmy and all of you. She enjoyed her time in Oxford and acquired her qualifications.


We moved back to Broughty Ferry, ie to Dundee, then to Edinburgh and when Jimmy and Jane were in Crail we met there or Anstruther or Broughty Ferry, or more recently we met Jimmy in Edinburgh."
