Hail Captain Thomas Moore!!

Sir Captain Thomas Moore

So in this world of foolish stupidity where the word "hero" has been so diluted we're handing that title out to 6 year olds or coffee bar workers here we have a shining example of a humble man who set out to do just a little, the world responded by raising just about $40 MILLION DOLLARS for the UK's National Health Service---he wanted to give a little back. Good lord I feel like a worthless slacker now.......

Upon Boris Johnson's nomination Queen Elizabeth so appropriately knighted Capt Moore---now he has another well deserved title---hail great men like this regardless where we find them.

God Speed Sir Moore--you're an inspiration!

Great post...some positive news in this gloomy world. I read about Sir Thomas when he started his walk and was amazed at the amount of $$$$ he raised. I believe Sir Captain has been promoted to Colonel. Truly an inspiration.

I do believe he thought something under 10K pounds would be a nice helping hand for the British National Heath Service---raised just under 33 MILLION pounds!

And my profound apologies for demoting Sir Thomas Moore from Captain---he deserves to be PM maybe?
