Re: Army veteran charity walk for NHS

I don't know if any of you have read 'The unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry'. This story reminds me of it and the fact that the nation has got behind it. A great book btw, guaranteed to have you in tears.

I doubt Harry could cope with the pressure.

A videolink with the Queen appropriate, a personal thank you from the monarch to a fellow nonagenarian, both celebrating April birthdays.

£18M That's just brilliant. Of course what this does prove is that we don't need over-paid, over-exposed so called celebrities to raise money for charity. Just one genuine person will do the trick.
