What sad news about John Penhallurick. I remember his email some 18
months ago advising of his prognosis.
At that time he said that the thing that saddened and worried him the most,
after saying goodbye to my wife, daughters and granddaughter was that he
would have to give up his ambition to get to 8000 birds. Condolences to
his family
