Hello All. For those who are enquiring about Jimmy Rowan. I have seen him a few times. He lives in Kirkby and is still as camp as a row of tents. Full of life and dead funny. When I am in Liverpool I also see. Joey Simpson, Larry May, Jack Spence, Eddie Carberry, Eddie Hughes and Johnny Flynn. I saw Billy Fogg as well, I hadn't seen him in 30 yrs. We both recognised each other immediately. Hello to Tony Wakeford, love to Fran.
Went through basic in 11 Pl with Jimmy back in late 1966. He indeed was a real comedian.
To Jimmy Mathews, remember seeing many of your bouts, especially on the way to the army title under SSgt McCabe. I won the novice middleweight or was it then light middleweight title at 3RGJ back in 1969. Year before I was bounced out in the semis by "Maverick" from the mortar platoon (Cpl Treverthick).
