We sadly say good bye to our friend and colleague John Maude, who has been a long term friend and participant at the Pottery Expo.
So many potters have enjoyed his warmth, sense of humour and skill with his invention and production of Easy bats. He will be greatly missed by many.
Our heart goes out to his wife Joy, his tower of strength and always by his side. Condolences to their family.
