I just wanted to publicly add my congratulations to Captain Tom Moore who I expect many of you already know has raised in excess of £12m by walking daily laps in his garden at the grand old age of 99! What a marvellous example to all of us. Wishing him the happiest birthday ever as he celebrates his centenary on April 30th. Absolutely marvellous achievement! 👏👏👏👏

Sir Tom, yes has a good 'Ring' about it. A VERY well deserved Knighthood too, and a Medal? Perhaps even 'Order Of The Garter', I believe, decided by Her Majesty- what a Wonderful Tribute that would be.😊 Doesn't he seem a 'Lovely Gentleman', as well?
At the VERY least a 'Story/ Documentary', of his life- NOT an 'eighteen part', every Nut & Bolt 'thing'.... Just a good Overview of his life AND his Charity work.
He is incredible. I hope they make a film of his life. His family must be bursting with pride. He has uplifted the world well done Captain Tom, you are an amazing human being. 😄😄
What an absolute Hero Captain Tom really is 99 & still going strong! I hope he reaches his 100 Year Old Birthday, this veteran deserves a new medal for this achievement, No question! Who could have seen this coming...... Congrats, Well done young man , keep on going, your our NHS supporting hero!
It really has lifted my spirits reading about this fabulous man. Yes, he has completed his challenge now and he has raised £13,000000! How extraordinary is that! His 100th birthday is at the end of the month. There must be a way the UK can wish him well. What about combining the clapping for the NHS with singing happy birthday? Any other suggestions? We can't let this pass us by.
Aw, that's a lovely idea Mydexter. I'm not sure if I can get an exact address, but I'll see if there's anything out there and come back to you. I believe he's in Bedfordshire and bet by now he's getting sack loads just addressed to him at Captain Tom, Bedfordshire!! 😁
