I was very sad to hear that John Pearse passed away last Thursday.

Many will remember John from his days running Thames Ditton Marina.He took over from his father Nobby,who was the Thames representitive to the TC.

A good friend to me and many others.
 
I must have met him as TDM was the best Chandlery on the Thames at the time. Sadly the Marina has become a bit of a cess pool run by a couple of jokers who have sub let what used to be the Chandlery to an eating establishment. Not eaten there so cannot comment but the marina side of things is very seedy.
 
Sad new RIP John
He gave me my first job back in 1995 as the Sunday boy stocking up and serving Diesel and Gas
Lovely guy
TDM has changed so much it's a shames as was the last chandlery going down River apart from The Boat Shop at Teddington lock.
That has good stuff in stock or can be ordered
