He used to be over Uncle AJ's place with a few others e.g. Jimbits. That was some years ago though. I was always terrified of him.

I think that's right there was a Jim (Snyder ?) with the trike picture too. He was over at AJ's also.
Come to think of it, the last I saw of Jimbits here was when he berated you, Mon, for not liking the London 2012 Olympic opening ceremony

That's the Jim I meant.

And you're right, the J-bits wasn't funny at all.
