I corresponded with John after we 'met' on Your New Zealand. Like him, I love birds and never tire of watching them. His videos of the 'pooks' are treasures and should be in a national archive. I will greatly miss the emails but wouldn't wish him back with that terrible illness. I made a donation to Motor Neurone as a little memorial.
