I was so very sorry to hear of John's death. We were together at The Grange, 54 years ago, some of the happiest times of my life. We all had such innocent fun and John is a key part of just about all of my memories- from cricket games and freezing on the rugby pitch to our daily battles with Mr Copestake. They were wonderful times. John made a real mark on me in those days- and his influence made us all better people.
