Yes, I know the last two paragraphs look like a dog (well, look horrible) but I can't think of a better way of phrasing them at the minute. I'll have another look tomorrow, try and work that out. Tyrhinis 22:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ok i have done some digging and the best I can discover is the director and secretary of Gunnsmith Ltd (now inactive) is one Samantha Jayne Baker who also holds positions in a number of companies one being JonCG Ltd which also has a director called Jonathan David Giles Courtenay Grimwood.

David Gunn

http://onlythebestscifi.blogspot.com/2011/07/where-is-david-gunn.html

Would this be considered original research? Copy-pasted from the provided link.

The Company JonCG is listed as an Artistic and Literary Creation company with the same company address as Gunnsmith Ltd, also Jonathan is listed as an author.

Jonathan again is a director in a number of companies including the British Science Fiction Association ltd. (previous directors have been Iain Banks and Arthur Clarke!)

Searching for Jonathan leads me to Jon Courtenay Grimwood also an author who happens to be married to one Sam Baker writer journalist and editor in chief of Red magazine and they divide their time between London and Winchester.

Jon's website alludes to travelling and growing up in various countries but doesn't mention a military career.

I would conclude that Jon Courteney Grimswood is David Gunn, given that he is married to a lady with the same name as listed on company records and Gunnsmith ltd owns the copyright to David Gunn's books. It appears that he is alive and well and he has been concentrating on a number of other works.

Leaving that aside for the, um, last three months, what happened to the picture? The article used to have a pic of the man himself, lifted straight off his website. Was it summarily deleted for not being fair use? Wouldn't it appear in the article history? In any case, we should try and get one sorted out... Tyrhinis 20:34, 25 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
