I see a Spitfire Flypast is being planned for him on his birthday. Hopefully it will pass over my house on it's way as he lives not so very far from me :-D :-D :-D. The Spitfire is my number one favourite plane |

It appears there are a lot of restrictions on what the money can be spent on. |

Michael Ball is doing a version of "You'll Never Walk Alone" with Captain Tom and some NHS choir members which they hope will be at Number 1 in the charts for Captain Tom's birthday later this month. |

Had'nt heard about the Spitfire fly past, my son works on Spitfires at Duxford, have to ask him if he knows where it is coming from although he is furloughed at moment. |

It is hopefully being organised by Biggin Hill Hilary. Your son is sooo lucky I am not that far from Duxford either. It will be a very fitting tribute to this amazing fella <3 |

Too true Liz, they did donate £100,000 but agree for this they should not take the money. Nearly £25 & half million now. |

Apparently he has either been invited as a guest of honour or has been asked to open the Nightingale Hospital at Harrogate. |

Yes he's been invited to open Harrogate Nightingale but he will be doing it by PC. |

It's great that so much money has been raised. |

Now past £27,000000, True what you say Kathleen, at least it is'nt taken out of the money you donate, there is a charge on top of what you donate, would sooner do it that way instead of them taking it from the donation. |
