Jim's double delight
Jim (pictured), from Lossiemouth, secured his second consecutive victory in the Highland Wheelchair Curling Club event with team-mates Mo Simpson (Inverness) and Ian Donaldson (Dumfries).
The Moray Wheelchair Curling Club member dumped the Moray trio of Mike McKenzie, Jackie Caton and Craig Taylor in the final.
Jim won the inaugural event last year with Moray team-mates Gregor Ewan and Tom Killin, but didn’t expect to be able to defend the trophy.
“Originally I thought I would be going to Denmark with the Scotland squad, but only heard five days before the event that I wasn’t going,” he said.
That saw event organiser Mo Simpson pull together a scratch threesome with Jim and Ian at the last minute.
Team Simpson won six games on their way to the final before beating the Moray trio 9-5 to lift the trophy in the Tesco-sponsored event.
There was plenty of banter in the build-up to the final, especially as Mike was giving Jim a lift through to Inverness both days of the competition.
“There was a wee bit of niggle,” joked Jim. “Everybody wants to win and there was a good rivalry.”

Thrill for Bob as he gets GB call-up
Bob McPherson
It is only six years since Bob McPherson took up wheelchair curling, but he’s now set to join the world’s elite winter athletes in Sochi next year.
The 44-year-old from Bellshill will join Gregor Ewan, Tom Killin, Aileen Neilson to represent Great Britain at the Winter Paralympics being held in Russia.
Bob says he was thrilled when his selection was confirmed.
He said: “We had been out in Sochi for the world championships so had a feeling this might be the team they went with, but never like to assume anything.
“When I got the call to say I was definitely in the team I was over the moon.
“We finished sixth on our last visit to Russia, but it was the first time we had all played together in a major tournament so hopefully can push on from that result.
“The venue for that was the same one that will be used next year and it is great to have had that experience and even though hanging about in airports on just a long trip can be somewhat tedious I can’t wait to head back to Russia.”
Bob, who was born with Spina Bifida, joined South Lanarkshire Wheelchair Curling Club in Hamilton in 2007 after being persuaded to give the sport a go by his friend Jim Sellars, a former Paralympian himself.
He said: “I just started as a hobby, but I found that I really enjoyed it and was soon determined to make the performance squad.
“I did that, I have won a Scottish title and now I’m going to the Olympics, things just keep getting better and better.”
