He started to play the cornet in 1994 when he decided he was getting bored whilst waiting for his son Joe to have a cornet lesson, Joe subsequently gave up but Jamie has enjoyed playing ever since mainly on the back row, but for a brief spell some years ago where he was drafted in to the front row team to assist with the counting of bars rests (our front row aren't very bright!).
