Hi Rikki, I am sure he is having a drink with Niki although John’s preferred tipple is a gin and tonic.
Just been to see him resting in peace and all the strain of illness in his face has gone and he looks years and years younger.
The lady looking after him said, what a good looking man and I bet that he was a kind and gentle soul which we all know he is.
I refuse to speak of John now in the past tense as he is still with us in spirit.
I read out to John all the messages on here as well as videos and music on the Facebook pages. He said I don’t know what all the fuss is about as I am nothing special but we all know what a self effacing man he is.
I said to John that you are a blooming fabulous clerk and steward, so there.
Motorsport is going to miss his cheeky smile and special demeanour at meetings.
