Gerry is no longer at home now.
There's a Just Giving page for the hospice that is now giving palliative care to him
If you can afford to, please donate to the Micheal Sobell hospice who are looking after him.
Please mark your donation 'For Gerry'.

'Linky Poo'

These Hospices do a sterling job. My Mum was in one towards the end. A worthy cause if you can support. Here's thinking of you Gerry..

Met Gerry a few times .
One of carp fishings true characters
I'm sure the hospice are managing his pain relief .
Loved his photos and stories from his younger days .

Saved and cost me hundreds over the years with his Linkys .
❤️❤️❤️

Wish I had spotted this earlier as I have donated to his brave the shave link:

Brave the Shave - Gerry Giles

Hopefully someone will be able to draw this money down, in case Gerry can't.

@Tinhead (Bob), would you like me or one of the MODS if I'm not around, to pin this thread?

Bump it back into members eye lines, most of us have at some point had the benefit of Gerry's never ending pursuit of bargains and information via the now infamous “Linkypoo” 😂😂😂
