Denmark is to allow hairdressers to open. Surely the UK will follow suit soon.
Not that I'll be going of course

In reply to Post #186 He’s raised that with none of the bluster and bigging up celebrities do for comic relief, red nose etc ....
Hopefully it all goes to the front line free of charge without the charity elite managers getting involved and drawing large salaries and requiring big London offices in the city.
He should receive a knighthood post haste And not wait for honours list 👍🏻

In reply to Post #185 With sincere apologies to David Bowie...
Number Ten to Captain Tom
Number Ten to Captain Tom
Take your Senatogen and put your jacket on
Number Ten to Captain Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)
Commencing countdown, slippers on (five, four, three)
Check your Werther’s and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff)
This is Number Ten to Captain Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to see the path you wear
Look it up on Google Earth if you dare
"This is Captain Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm walking in a most determined way
And hope that this makes up for cuts in nurses’ pay
For here
Am I walking round my garden
Far above the world
Number ten is blue
And there's nothing I can do”

In reply to Post #183 Hi Sir B,
You mean Justin Hawkins?......really......but can Mal sing in falsetto?
Hi All,
Just to report that Tom Moore has just done his 100 laps with a guard of honour from the Yorkshire regiment, his old county. As I write, the donations have just passed, wait for it.......£12.3 million. Incredible and the money keeps pouring in.
Capt. Tom has become an icon, a rallying call for people all around the world to focus their desire to help and try and make a difference. They see that old soldier wearing his medals, still trying to serve his country and it spurs them to join in.
I bet in the future, the name, Capt.Tom will become a metaphor for generous acts..
In the US, Lieutenant Dan, the war wounded character from Forrest Gump has become a huge icon for the support of the US military, gold star families and first responders.
Gary Sinise, the actor and musician who played him, formed the Gary Sinise Foundation, which has become an enormous enterprise and formed the Lt. Dan Band, which travels the US and the world where US troops are stationed and play close to 100 concerts a year. Part of the Foundation is the Snowball Express to help Gold Star children who have lost a parent. Every year, they take about 1750 of them and their mothers to Disneyland Florida for 4 days and give them the time of their lives. It's incredible what Gary Sinise has achieved and is all documented on U tube with loads of videos.
Take a look, it's really inspirational. The man's a legend.
BB.

In reply to Post #177 I’ve never seen mal but I don’t think he’s black with a nervous twitch wearing a torn puffa jacket and stained beanie hat in the midday sun
Never a dull moment round here
