I found out today though that his name wasn't Jimmy. His name must have gone astray in the wisps of time!  He was sitting outside Cardiff Indoor Market but had moved his pitch ironically because the God squad had taken his. He wasn't bothering anybody, he just had a hat out in front of him. I gave him a quid and reminded him of how and where we met over 25 years ago. He said that he didn't have long (to live)! I asked him why he felt that and he replied that he could just feel it. I've said in the above 2 blog posts that I am glad that he is still alive. I hope to see him tomorrow to give him a copy of the book with a dedication inside. We had a chat. He was lucid and clear. He told me that only this morning had he been thinking of writing his life story! Watch this Space.
