40 minutes later it passed 30 million during the fly over to salute him which was pretty emotional :bawling:

and his just giving page has crashed :laugh:

Any chance you could update the title Adam?

I think my head's going to explode if I read one more time that the government should be funding the NHS.

This old boy is raising funds for NHS CHARITIES.. C H A R I T I E S.

How nice they made him an honorary colonel.

I know I have made the same comment several times but it is completely ignored, I would love to know how many run the London Marathon every year for NHS CHARITIES but nobody bats an eyelid

Awww, he's adorable :love:

Cpt Tom is getting his Knighthood from Queenie today in an open air ceremony with a 2 meter long sword

£32,796,357
raised of £500,000 target
by 1,519,441 supporters

Two metre sword?! That's awesome, I'd love to see someone in a battle using that :laugh: how many heads could they lop off at once?!

Slight tangent ... I wonder how much of the £32+ million will actually find its way to the needy ..

Isn't that lovely? I'm delighted for him.

Actually that is fake news I dropped it in there for my own amusement :joker:

oops :joker: that would have been awesome, Queenie should consider having one forged.

she wouldn't be able to hold it :laugh:

Can someone please give me a brief on this story? Apologies I didnt really follow it from the start.

From what I understand he was an old man who walked around his house to raise money for the NHS and lots of people gave money so now he is being knighted?

..:lovedup:...194 glorious years with those two young people...

Really special and well deserved moment.
He in my view, warranted this or other honour anyway.
Over most of the other celebrity recipients of them over the decades.
