Hello all.

Just called to advise that Jim Morris, a regular poster on the ex-beeb forum lost his battle with cancer, somewhat fittingly at 11.11am on Sunday 11th.

I know Jim loved to post on the ex-beebers site and post some of his lovely photographs on here too. I spoke to his wife, Rose, today and she asked me to let people know via the forums. I met Jim on several trips, northeast, S Yorks, E. Yorks, Lancs - even the Birdfair at Rutland Water.

A larger than life character - a cheeky cockney chappie (well, Isle of Sheppey, Kent) who made his home in retirement in Staffordshire. And loved his birds and in his latter years photographing them.

R.I.P mate - great knowing you.

Hi there

So very sorry to hear about Jim. :-C

I have not been posting on the x-Beebs very much due to on-going issues that need resolved in my own life. So if I have overlooked any situations like this one - my apologies in advance!

Jim was a dedicated poster, and he loved to talk about birds in a big way as they where part of his passion in life :-O

RIP Jim and it was good knowing you on the The Bird Forum

Regards
Kathy
