Happy Birthday Colonel Tom.

Recommended Posts

What a day for this remarkable man. A hand written letter from her Majesty, promotion to the rank of Colonel, a fly past over his house and he has now this morning passed £30 million raised for the NHS.

Thoroughly Seconded. Its pretty much the equivalent of ten bob from every man woman and child in the UK. Outstanding.

Absolutely brilliant story can't wait for the film of his life culminating in the hero of a crisis.

Over 30m unbelievable especially when I saw a Headline from the Sun "PL players raise £4m" peanuts really must do better.

Agree re knighthood asap.

I salute you Colonel Tom. Well done to Britain for getting behind it. Whatever will they do with all those birthday cards?
