A RADIO programme which paid tribute to the late Sir Jimmy Savile this week reminded my wife Sylvia and I of when we entered the Stoke Mandeville car park a couple of years ago, when I went in to have an operation there, on my eyes.

As we drove through the car park, Sylvia at the wheel, we saw Jimmy Savile.

At the same time, he saw us, and to our surprise he came over to our car, and he leaned forward to speak to Sylvia.

So she wound the window down, and he said to her “How are you,” with a big smile.

She said: “I am alright, thank you Jimmy,” and he was gone – but we have never forgotten this small memory of him.
