Such sad news

 

[horndean_exile]

Very sad, mind you I was surprised his family took him over to Barbados Christmas and New Year, I wondered at the time it was a sensible thing to do given the situation WW.

 

[SlowDownDerek]

I definitely would have gone to Barbados if I was him.

 

[Ken Baileys Ghost]

Well there's one going straight to heaven.

Top man.

What a way to spend your last 12 months.

As mentioned on the Pandemic thread it was on his bucket list, he went and hopefully had a good holiday with his family.

Sad news indeed.
An elderly man who through his optimism and sheer effort brought us altogether.
I’m sure he’s doing a hundred laps around heaven!

Incredible achievement to make it to 100. Then to do what he did, in such an unassuming way, which lifted the nation at a bleak time.

RIP

The gentleman in your image would certainly have approved of his fighting action at Arakan!

What a guy, and what a last hurrah he had, why not.
Sad day though

 

[New Old Cherry]

Without Covid he probably would have got another couple of years !
A life of Good Service to Britain.
He Showed a Way....a fighting spirit. RIP.

And ironically not done as much in another ten of those years as he squeezed into the last one.
