John has always been and will remain one of my best friends, we go back to April 1973. I have rescued him, and Adams from land crabs in Belize, the RMP in Belfast and any number of incedents mostly beer related.
John had lunch with me at my house when he came to Warminster to see Jackie, we did a lot of remenising Geordie Adams of course featured a lot.
Condolences and best wishes to John's family from all his old mates in Warminster, there are quite a few of us.

Sorry to hear of Geordies passing.

He was a character, and will be remembered from my anti tank days in Tidworth and Germany.

My condolences to the family.
