Well Done Mairi!

What a wonderful tribute Mairi paid to the late Jim (Wee Jim) MacDonald on Wednesday night by putting on a class of Jim's favourite moves. It was a great idea and the friends of Jim who turned up greatly appreciated it. and I'm sure he would have appreciated it too. Big John was Mairi's demo and he did a good job too. Well done to the both of you.

Re: Well Done Mairi!

to Mhairi.......
Was shocked to hear about Jim, He was a sound wee guy who was liked by everyone. i suppose if he had been able to pick a way to go, then it would probably not have differed much to how it happened. God Bless wee man R.I.P.

Re: Well Done Mairi!

Just read this and called Brian to see if it was who I thought it must be.
Can only echo what the gents have said, lovely bloke with a sense of humour, a love for the dance and for the ladies of the dance
Jim was one of the first men I danced with as a very raw beginner and he was kind, helpful and friendly from the off. He will be missed.

To me he was "Glasgow Jim"
A lovely man who always had a smile for everyone, and a dance or two for all his girls

Re: Well Done Mairi!

Shocked to read this !! I will always remember Jim as a lovely man, I had the privilege to dance with on many an occassion in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Jim was one of the first Glasgow men who asked Sheena + I to dance when we made our very first visit to Partick Burgh Halls in Glasgow many years ago!
He was always a gentleman both on and off the dance floor. He will be sorely missed.

Jim
