Captain Tom Moore

[Arthur Little]

Ironically the WWII hero - who was recently knighted for his valiant fund~raising efforts :olddude: to support the NHS in the run-up to his centenary year during the covid crisis - has, himself, succumbed to the disease! :bigcry:

"Well done, thy good and faithful sevant" ... RIP!

Good grief.

Did the poor Gentleman get infected whilst receiving hospital treatment for his Pneumonia?

Seemingly the 33 million quid he raised has all been squandered on:

Snacks for staff in County Durham
Pop-up shops in the capital
Space to relax in Scotland
Tea breaks in North Wales
