R.I.P John. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this sad time.

Very sad indeed and so young with so much knowledge.
Didn't you just love the way he threw himself into the technical matters of caravanning.
Amongst many other achievements I am sure he will be fondly remembered for his excellent Caravan Manual, still available from Haynes. Every caravanner should keep a copy of John's manual on board.
