Very sad to hear this today. Postman Pat was a mainstay of my childhood in the eighties and thirty-odd years later he's much loved by our two year old. I'm sure many families out there will be the same and that's a tremendous legacy.

One of my old bands used to do a punk version of the Postman Pat theme song. Fond memories of that and the pleasure that John’s creation brought to my kids.

I still read a Postman Pat story to my special needs 22 year old son at bedtime when he’s home with us. I start with the book title... and he continues: “by John Cunliffe.” We LOVE Pat’s adventures, filling the story with animated actions, accents & exaggerated expression!

Very proud to have been Postman Pat's publisher. John was witty, warm and incredibly hardworking. Flags at half-mast in Greendale today.

RIP....and what do you call Postman Pat after he has been made redundant to max profits for shareholders following Vince Cable's disgraceful sell off?....Pat
