    John and I were great friends and neighbours in the early 1960s when living in London (Pimlico). I saw him in "The Nightlife of a Virile Potato", starring Sarah Churchill. We lost touch when he moved to Italy - but glad to see he continued to work in his chosen field. RIP John, fondly remembered. M.
