From Facebook, by by drain Russel I know some are not on Facebook,
This is for those who are members of the #yamahadiversion club. I have been contacted by Jim Osbourn aka "CovertCodger" daughter Claire. It is with her permission that I unfortunately tell you that Jim passed away earlier this week. Jim joined us on the IOW weekend which was arranged by Adrian Hume back I believe in 2008. Myself, Stephen Clarke and a few others shared a rather large but crowded static caravan with Jim for that weekend of fun and biking. Please join me in wishing heart felt wishes to Claire and her family.

Jim visited m40mansion a couple of times. I’ve been looking for pics as I know I had one of him aboard the Fazer600 he’d just bought from me, then later he popped back on it for some TLC after he’d had a slight prang on it on an icy road.
I’ll have to keep looking!
