He was also a biker.

Post by Plugsnpoints »

Captain Tom Moore also rode a Scott Flying Squirrel.

14 million quid raised so far.

What an unselfish man, what a star.

That put a smile on my face just now. I'll raise a glass to him when we're allowed in pubs.

How about a Knighthood to accompany the Queen's telegram?

Total Respect for the old chap, I also think he should get a Knighthood as well as a centenary letter from HRH The Queen.

This seems like a very sincere tribute to the guy though I have to say sheepishly, who is he exactly and why is he held in such high esteem?
