Don't know if this has already been posted, but a 99 year old chap is walking 2.5km before his 100th birthday to raise money for the NHS. So far he's raised over 6 million.

How fantastic is that. Good luck Capt Tom Moore

He was hoping to raise £1000 .. well done Captain.

[ummmm]

It's amazing. So is the generosity of the British people.

Cheering it certainly is, an inspiration.

Ah, it was already posted, I missed it. It's amazing that most people are heading for uncharted territory with regards to their finances, but still donate a few quid.

[gness]

This is so wonderful and heartwarming.....both the gentleman and those who have donated.

Makes one proud to be British. The guy deserves a knighthood for his 'services to lifting the spirits of a nation'.

[pastafreak]

It's an amazing achievement.

[marval]

I would love to shake his hand, pity I can't.

[iluvmargie]

He's my hero.

[ladybirder]

The money is coming in from all over the world, not just here. He seems to have caught everyone's attention. Good Lad.

[tiggerblue10]

Absolutely amazing :o)))))

[Ken4155]

Over £7M and counting. And that's even with his web page crashing as 90,000 people were trying to donate all at the same time!!

An amazing charitable man

[jourdain2]

Quite moist round the eyes. Well done that man - and well done all those supporting him as well as all those donating.

[rockyracoon]
