    Very sad news indeed.

    John was one of our gang in the very early days of field target, travelling the length of the country in our old converted coach.

    So many good memories.

    RIP big man.

    Yes, I'm good Terry thanks, Dad asked me to pass on his regards.

    This pastime of ours attracts some genuine characters, people of real quality, and Mr Ford was one of the best.

    Really sad to hear of his passing.

    The GC2 was a real ground-breaker. Way ahead of it's time. Glad I have the chance to own one.

    My condolences to his family and the people at Sportsmatch.
